2021 BAP Regional Meeting Chapter Operations: Officer Transition Techniques

Agenda • Introduction • Objectives • Adapting to a Virtual Environment • Officer Mentorship • Future Outlook

Introduction

Introduction • In 2019, Akron’s Gamma Eta chapter had a total of nine officers • In 2020, our chapter only returned two officers • Our chapter officers had to adapt to their new roles along with adapting to a virtual environment

Objectives

Adapting to a Virtual Environment 2019 • Meetings held in Person • All our files were hard copies • No centralized location for our organization's files and documents 2020 • Meetings held virtually through Web. Ex • We now keep all of our files/documents on a shared Google Drive

Adapting to a Virtual Environment Cont. Online Platforms: • Learning to become more efficient in an online platform • Ability to host breakout rooms so firms can still host activities • Officer trainings for different streaming platforms so our officers can adapt (Zoom, Teams, Web. Ex)

Officer Mentorship • Have an introductory meeting before the semester so each officer can learn their role along with the other officer roles • Existing officers will now tag team their roles with future officers to show them the responsibilities of each role and can answer any questions they may have • This helps the new officers as they have already had a semester in their new role before taking over the role officially

Future Outlook

Goals for Future Semester • Continue to utilize our google drive • This will allow future officers to look back on prior year files in case they need a reference • Continuing to host meetings through Web. Ex for the foreseeable future to keep our members and local professionals safe • Continue using the officer mentorship so each new officer will have support going into their new roles • Online Platform Training so each officer is comfortable with hosting a meeting
