Hello from Your World Board!
We are pleased to offer a draft revision of the Group Business Meetings service pamphlet for review and input. Guided by CAR Survey results, the 2023 World Service Conference prioritized the following as one of the focuses for the New and Revised Service Tools project plan: Revise and update the service pamphlet Group Business Meetings to include CBDM and delegation.
Following the process for Board-approved material, the draft will be posted for a 90-day review period, revised as needed based on the input, and finalized for production and posting. (Service pamphlets are all available from na.org/webstore and posted at na.org/sps.)
What’s in the Draft?
The draft includes two new sections to be added to the Group Business Meetings service pamphlet, one titled “Decision Making” and one titled “Delegation.” We reviewed Consensus-Based Decision Making Basics (posted at na.org/basics) and The Twelve Concepts booklet (posted at na.org/literature) to craft these new sections. These sections will be inserted together between the existing sections on “Group Conscience” and “Maintaining Strong Home Groups.”
