Student Orgs
Why Most Student Orgs Don't Work (& What To Do About It)™
Hundreds of reasons, three at the core.
What Every College Student Needs To Know®
About Organizational Development
Most student organizations don't work because they aren’t designed to work. Students are stretched thin, the workload isn’t shared, the vision doesn’t translate to action, and less students are showing up since the pandemic. It's no wonder students and their advisors are frustrated year after year that their clubs and organizations aren't operating at their full potential!
The reality is that most student orgs are run by leaders-in-training who only stick around for a year or two, so these problems get solved this year and then sneak back up again next year with the new group!
What can you do as an advisor? After 25+ years of studying thousands of student orgs, we have discovered key reasons for these issues and exciting solutions that go beyond the symptoms and get to the source of organizational success.
