refocus your group.

principles, and goals - and
how to turn them into a business plan/mission statement the
whole group can
implement. We'll cover ways to keep your group connected and
moving forward.
You'll leave with a plan of action and plenty of ideas on how to
ignite and refocus
your group for maximum effect.
