Strengths and Weaknesses of my Chapter, Council and Community

It is always a great idea to take a step back and reflect on your organization and how it is progressing. If there is any improvement to be made you have to first identify what needs to be changed. Here are some strengths and weaknesses of my chapter, council and community.

The eXquisite Xi Gamma Chapter of ZETA PHI BETA SORORITY, INNNNNNNCORPORATED:
Weaknesses-
*As a chapter we do NOT know how to say no. We often over program in one week. We are asked to do collaborations quite often and even if we have something personal going on we always say yes. It is great that people like to work with us but we need to recognize that sometimes it is ok to say NO.
*There are times when I feel that my chapter members over extend themselves rather than delegating tasks and getting help. We all have a SuperWoman mentality (and I am very guilty of this). It is always seems easier to do something yourself and get the task completed but sometimes you need help. *Side Note* We are SuperWomen NOT SuperZetas! Difference is that we had this drive and will to succeed on our own without these letters and though some of us may be mistaken as SuperZetas due to the fact that we do wear these letters we were just as great before crossing.

Strengths-
*We are a very approachable chapter. We always here from Greeks and Non-Greeks alone about how easy it is to talk to us. People feel that they are able to be themselves and still engage in conversation with us. This is one of the main reasons why I joined this organization. We dont give off an elitist vibe.
*Another GREAT thing about my AWSOME chapter is they we are very open and honest with one another. As sisters we find it very important to keep trust in one another. We answer each others questions honestly and we hold one another accountable for our actions. We know that what one of us does reflects all of us and we make sure that we represent each other well and when one doesnt do so we call her out on it and help her make the appropriate changes.
*We find it very important to share things with one another. If one of us come accross a job or internship we send it to those who are interested and those who it applies to.

NPHC:
Weakness-
*As a council we do not get involved and engaged in council or cross council wide events. We focus more on our individual chapters than the council. We as a whole need to put more work into NPHC.
* We as a council need to raise our grades.
*Low member attendance to meetings.
*We need fund raising opportunities other than the Step Show
Strengths-
*Our members would love to see us improve.
*We are working on a scholarship task force.
*Our executive board is strong and has a desire to reach out to other councils
*We have a unified exec board who are working to increase unity amongst member chapters

Community:
Weakness-
*As a community we tend to focus on the negative and never display the good things that take place.
*On that same note we tend to encourage and instigate the negative things.
*We tend to dwell on negative events that have taken place rather than just letting them go and moving on.

Strengths-
*We keep Greek life going. Without membership intake and the constant interest in Greek life we wouldnt have sororities and fraternities.
*The community is the pulse of Greek Life
*School spirit brings us all together
