At our January 16th meeting Co-president Lauri initiated a discussion about what our club’s future might look like. Figuring out our future is a process of planning and developing strategies for future actions and developments. It involves determining the best course of action, understanding future implications and assessing potential future outcomes. For example, it could pertain to personal growth or our club’s movement towards specific goals.
Lauri started by asking the questions
Question #1: “What are you proud of and what are we good at?”.
Question #2: "What are the Key External Factors or Developments Influencing RCOT?"
A list of possible external factors & developments are found... HERE.
Actions to be developed further with the members.
