Welcome To Leadership

Thank you for your contributions to TNT and helping us grow our organization! You've been selected as your chapter's president. Please read the responsibilities for this position below. This page will cover what is expected of you during your time in this leadership role and give you some pointers for getting started in leadership.

As president, your job is to oversee the chapter and its operations, ensure the other leadership positions are doing their jobs in a timely manner, and directly communicating with corporate when needed. At first, chapter president might seem intimidating, but corporate is here to make sure you have everything you need to do your role effectively. We look forward to having your help!

Run The Meeting

The president is responsible for running the chapter meeting each week and ensuring each meeting sticks to the TNT structure outlined in your President's Agenda. Meetings are to follow this agenda to ensure each meeting has the same flow and we have enough time for all chapter business during our allotted meeting time. Weekly meetings are to be 1.5hrs with NO breaks.

Coordinate Leadership Meetings Regularly

The president is responsible for conducting a leadership meeting a minimum every 8 weeks. The goals of these leadership meetings are to discuss all current chapter reports and discuss chapter business goals. These meetings can be directly after your chapter meeting if all leadership agrees to stay over or they can be an entirely separate meeting, whichever works for everyone. To do these meetings effectively, keep notes of what key points your leadership brings to your attention and what can be done to address them. All leadership meetings need to be reported in your President's Report.

Conduct Open Forum Meeting for Membership Feedback

As president of your chapter, it's important to listen to your members. This not only makes them feel heard, which helps them feel like part of the chapter, but an outside perspective on some of the challenges the chapter may be facing is a great way to overcome them. Coordinate an Open Forum meeting in place of the normal 10 minute presentation every 8 – 10 weeks.

Build and Maintain a Leadership Binder

A Leadership Binder is a tool for your chapter's leadership team to run the meetings smoothly. Inside the binder, each leader has their one folder with all of their materials. These folders are to stay with the chapter week to week. This helps the chapter run smoothly incase of absences, because the member filling that role will be able to have all of the materials needs.
