HOUSE OF JOSSEY-JOSEY|
FOCUS AND VISION

2001-2003

The role of a leader for any organization includes identifying the direction the organization wants or needs to go and provides the leadership and support to help get the organization there. As I have talked to many of the members of the House of Jossey-Josey, I have identified some common themes that are emerging. These themes include: Increased active membership; Increased communication; Development of a common project/purpose/focus; and Coordination of 2003 reunion.

Increased active membership:
    Recruit new members who have an interest in the organization
    Ask for volunteers who are interested in leading or working on various projects
    Establish active committees -- i.e.: Membership Development, Newsletter,
        Web Page Development, and Reunion Planning.

Increased communication:
     Continue newsletter bi-annually to be distributed to dues paying members
     Development of a web page
     Plan Board meeting for next Spring

Development of common project/purpose/focus:
    Establish Genealogy site for House of Jossey-Josey History

Coordinate 2003 reunion:
    Determine site for next reunion April 2003
