Chapters may enter their best retention initiative that was deployed between September 17, and April 30, 2019 via a short online survey that is due April 30, 2019.
SGMP staff will judge entries based on creativity, potential for using the idea as a best practice, the chapter’s rationale for why they picked this idea and expected results and/or feedback from members.
Retention initiatives are those that add value to being a part of your chapter – it could be as simple as an unexpected recognition that is added during your meetings, an informal mentor program, a free program/event/webinar for members only, or some other creative idea you have! Good Luck!
