Good Afternoon Chapter Leaders!
It's been another exciting week creating on the 30-city, 10-week Lazy Leader road show for fall.
The working title we are playing with is The Lazy Leader Transforms America - One Volunteer at a Time!
I'm excited to hear what folks tomorrow have to say about the current concept.
(You are welcome to join the feedback party too - http://tinyurl.com/dambbz )
The Playground is an exciting place!
Playfully Yours,
Cynthia

Leaders in Transition
What do you need to know when you step up to a new leadership position?
Or what did you wish you knew?
I'm planning to do three Webinars Playdates in June on leadership transition.
I would love your feedback on areas to focus on or specific information that would be really helpful for you.
Here are the topics I'm looking at:
- How to Transition with Grace
(June 3rd, 1 PM ET)
Looking at transition from the perspective of the new leader and the outgoing leader.
- How to Give Your Team a Strong Start
(June 18, 1 PM ET)
Strategies and how-tos for building a strong and effective team - whether board or committee.
- How to Convince Members to Embrace New Ideas
(June 23, 1 PM ET)
New leadership, new ideas plus members stuck in mud = frustration. How-to ideas for steering members happily in new directions.
(Sarah will have the descriptions up by next week so you can start registering for the webinars.)
Thought I'd ask for your feedback before finalizing how I spin each one.
Share your thoughts in a Contact Form.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Rocking the Playground Hotline
FYI: James runs a hotline which opens 15 minutes before every Playground Webinar and runs through the event.
If you get stuck or aren't sure what to do get into the webinar, give the hotline a call.
The Playground Hotline number is listed in every webinar login email.
TIP: Put this number in your Outlook in case you need it one day.
Got Questions?
We've got answers.
If you need a sounding board on an issue or could use some help in a specific area, the Just Ask Cynthia program is great for you.
This webinar is like a call-in show with participants determining what's discussed that day.
In past programs, we've discussed how to recruit, designed membership retention campaigns, explored how to handle a troubling member - and more.
