Retention chairpersons serve by assisting in their district and multiple district’s membership retention efforts.
Retaining existing Lions and inviting new members is vital to the success of Lions International. Each club, district and multiple district may view membership growth and retention in a different way. Chairpersons oversee retention for their respective district and multiple district. While serving a three-year term, they ensure that each club, district and multiple district works toward retention in a way that they are comfortable with.
Various resources are available to help with your retention activities and to keep you in touch with the latest issues in club development and other relevant news.
RETENTION PROGRAMS
- President's Retention Campaign discusses the four most common reasons that a member is not retained… poor meeting quality, lack of involvement, the formation of club politics and not working together.
- The Mentoring Program is an excellent way to retain members. The mentoring program pairs an existing Lion with a new member, aiming to develop and retain both members.
- The Member Orientation Program will ensure that each Lion is familiar with the basics of the association, the type of activities they may participate in and what kinds of responsibilities they may have.
