UTILIZING YOUR MEMBERSHIP Three basic management principals: 1) All advisors are not created equal, 2) Commitments vary among individuals, 3) It isn’t what you do, it’s the way you do it. Those who are needed tend to participate more. Training is important to the success of our members. 2015 NATIONAL ORDER OF THE ARROW CONFERENCE

Track your members skills, interests, hobbies, etc. But, you also need to know personal information to help provide background about the individual.
