Monthly Club Meeting – Week/Day/Hour

As it stands presently, our Monthly Club Meeting is on ZOOM, on the
4 Monday of each month from 6:00 to 7:00 pm.
th

Considering that some of us never miss a meeting … while more of us
never attend a meeting, (in spite of being all totally up to date with our
annual membership fee), we like to think that, perhaps, ‘timing’ is likely to
be the main culprit? Why indeed join an organization, and pay a membership
fee if never able to attend or participate in anything? It is therefore
absolutely crucial that we remedy this problem and find out through the
following questions what would be the MOST POPULAR TIME for our Monthly
Club Meeting, taking into account that some of us are semi-retired, or
volunteering or working part time i.e. with, supposedly, a more flexible
schedule, while others are deeply engaged in the workforce and its many
demands.
Based on your answers a clear chart will be established revealing the time
that will suit the MAJORITY. The said chart will be submitted to you in
case you are able to make some minor adjustments. It is vital, if you care
about our Club, that you answer all questions as we cannot improve in the
dark. Thank you.

A)- Are you overwhelmed by your work and can never find the time to
attend a meeting, even though all our monthly meetings are on Zoom?
Answer:

i - Which week/day/hour would suit you best? If possible give us 2 or 3
alternatives from Monday to Sunday included.
Answer:

ii - When we invite Guest Speakers to our meetings, which kind of topics
would interest you the most or would be the most helpful to you?
Answer:

iii - As a member, would you be willing to give us a talk on a particular
topic, either directly related to your profession, or on any other subject, OR,
alternatively, lead a discussion/debate on any particular subject dear to you.
(Please mention topic(s)/subject(s) and how long you would require?)
We shall NOT dictate or limit your time - If it is to be during a regular
meeting, your talk can be 20 to 25 minutes + 10 or 5 minutes for Q&A.
If you need more time, we shall be happy to create a special event for you
and reach a larger audience. It is Your Organization – You will have the
stage!
