Last month the Chapter made a major change to its regular monthly meeting format by simply moving up its event start time to 6pm. This simple change provided ample occasion for our attendees to do things like; make new acquaintances, engage in discussions, and generally partake in a moment of good ol' camaraderie. We named this reception time "Table Talks". This first offering, Mr. David Fadeley (ESEP) was kind enough to serve as host where our attendee responses reported Table Talks a smashing success. As such, we would like to continue to hold reception sessions at all of our future monthly meetings. In doing so, we are looking to membership to step-up to volunteer as rotating hosts for these events. Anyone is welcome to host, but those who are long-time members should really consider this opportunity. No experience is needed beyond the ability to greet people. Its a great way to to participate in your chapter and also get to know the membership, as well as have the membership get to know you!
So please step-up, help your chapter to be inviting, and sign-up to host at a Table Talk session. Reach out to Programs@INCOSE-CC.org for more info.
