Bringing New People In

SFU Faculty of Science

A workshop on outreach and recruitment of new members through exploring ideas of self-interest, demonstrating relevancy, and communication

To kick off Building Capacity Week this workshop will help student leaders think through strategically and effectively reaching out and recruiting new members. As a group we will explore why recruitment is essential to a thriving student group, concepts of self-interest, why people join or don’t join groups, and how we can create and enable a constituency.This will be followed up on Tuesday with a working session on designing an outreach plan and the logistics and infrastructure for maintaining contact and communication with students. Attendance of both is recommended but not required.For a thriving Faculty of Science student community we need more, bigger, student groups! That is why February 14-18th will be Building Capacity Week with daily virtual sessions from 12:30-1:20pm. These are open to all Science undergraduates. While geared towards current union and club executives they are also relevant for engaged members and students who are thinking about starting a new club or running to be an executive in the future.Monday - Informational Session: Bringing New People In <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260671263767" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>Tuesday - Work Session: Creating an Outreach Plan <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260677111257" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260677111257</a>Wednesday - Informational Session: Bringing People Deeper into the Work <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260677843447" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260677843447</a><a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260677843447" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>Thursday - Work Session: Creating an Engagement Pipeline <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260683339887" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260683339887</a>Friday - Informational Session: Decision Making Models and Leadership Styles that Encourage an Active Membership <a href="https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260684292737" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/260684292737</a>For questions contact Thomas Leischner at sci_engagement@sfu.ca
