Leadership Opportunities
There are many opportunities to give back to your chapter, one of which is to hold a Leadership position within the chapter.
Visibility + Credibility = Profitability
Taking on a leadership role within your chapter benefits you in many ways:
- It gives you an opportunity to show your chapter members that you are leadership material. (Visibility)
- It builds trust with the other members. (Credibility)
- Experience - This is a great way to learn more about the inside workings of BNI. And the more you know about the organization, the better you can make it work for you.
- Confidence - Holding a position within an organization builds personal confidence and other members will have more confidence in your abilities.
- Gives you more exposure in front of the chapter. And more exposure translates into more business. (Visibility)
- Training - You receive great training as part of your participation. While this training is available to every member, when you are on the team you have even more of a reason to attend!
BNI Kentucky & Tennessee chapters select teams to serve 12 months. Teams are reconfirmed at 6 months to continue in office, or changed at end of 6 month period as required. Training is done twice a year, in last 2 weeks of March for teams beginning in April last 2 weeks of September for teams beginning in October. We do FULL OFFICER TRAINING at beginning of the term and Advanced Leadership Training at mid point for intact teams continuing on second 6 month period. Training is required for Presidents, Vice Presidents and Secretary/Treasurers. You cannot hold one of those positions without attending training twice a year, per our franchise agreement with headquarters.
The three positions that make up the main Leadership Team are President, Vice President and Secretary/Treasurer. You can see definitions of all of the positions here (you will need to log in).
Other positions appointed by President or Vice President are Education Coordinator, Membership Committee, Visitor Hosts, and Event Coordinator. Some chapters have a tourism director, mentor coordinator, PR coordinator and a power team coordinator, among others.
