Are your posts reaching the Millennial population?
As a Millennial, I often feel bombarded with news, statuses, updates, and e-mails and I am constantly trying to trim down my “wardrobe” of information to include only what I want and need to see.

Networking in a New Way
Last year, Networking was in one main location and many grumbled, so this year, we are going to try Networking in a whole new way. For me, it isn’t about how many Networking events we have, I desire to put out quality events that will help the clubs, areas and divisions which in turn will help our district. While I am leading the charge for the District, these same tools and tactics could be used for anyone who want to have a Networking Event.
Freedom to Focus – The Slack Channel
