Industry Roundtable - Non-Profits

Format
Each session will begin with doughnuts, juice & coffee and/or lunch depending on time of day.  The first five minutes will be networking & getting settled. 

Each session will last 1.5 hours – respect attendees time allotment. 
The Chamber staff will act as the scribe for the group, encouraging attendees to lead the conversation.  Should conversation stall, suggest one of the sample conversation starters below. 

In closing, allow the group to determine when to meet next.  The group can determine how often to meet, the time and any topics they would like covered. 

• Offer to find presenters to address specific topics.

1. Have attendees introduce themselves (name, company & role) and offer one challenge they are having in running their business. 
2. Share a successful strategy for connecting with customers.
3. Ask members to share a market expansion success, as well as a challenge or temporary setback.
4. Ask members to share how their business vision was developed and how they monitor short and long term goals/profitability.
5. Share one of your most successful posts on social media and how you garnered engagement (i.e. – shares, likes, comments, etc.)
6. Volunteer management & recruitment…any issues?
