最近到各校的校友會 (哈佛大學/耶魯大學/ Essex/東海校內的…..哈佛大學的校內日刊?，打破了校內/校友的分界，報導校友新近在華盛頓的勢力)網站去觀摩一下。我必須承認，我們的路遙遙---從理念上，以及從實務的服務上。哈佛大學HAA的海外見習，耶魯大學(由於是教會學校、校友組織很多元) 的領導論壇等，印象深刻。
而我相信，這也映射出我們的其他經營的問題。舉個例，(官方)傑出/卓越校友返校的人數，十年來可能增加10倍(每年一次)。……而某活動的報導，最近的消息是2009年的。這是什麼意思？

近日花點時間研究校友會等的經營
碰到耶魯大學的這套領導學程
我有興趣發展類似的一套
Emerging Leaders Forum
The AYA is taking their show on the road! Keep your eyes out for an announcement for an Emerging Leaders Forum or “Pep Rally” to come to your town. Learn firsthand about all the exciting new initiatives that the AYA is sponsoring. There are so many way s to be engaged. We are looking for new volunteers and alumni of all ages who want to be a part of the “New AYA”.
Strategic Planning Retreats
The AYA is dedicated to helping Yale Clubs and Associations to be the best that they can be. Strategic Planning Retreats are specially-designed programs in which dynamic alumni leaders from the area will convene to brainstorm about the many possibilities for a vibrant alumni community. This high-level, day-and-a-half program will focus on mission discernment and strategic planning to build a framework for the brightest possible future for the organization and the alumni it represents in the region.
Leadership Forums
LEADERSHIP FORUM FOR VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP & INNOVATION
Implementing the Strategic Plan: A Program for Leadership Development
VISION
A formal training program, complementing the AYA Assembly, to ensure that volunteers are effectively motivated, inspired, and equipped to lead alumni organizations at Yale. The Forum includes presentations and discussion on Yale’s institutional goals and priorities, volunteer recruitment and management, and best practices from other local Yale alumni organizations.
FORMAT
The program consists of two full-day sessions for key volunteer leaders from local Yale Clubs as well as other key alumni leaders representing Yale Classes, SIGs, and graduate & professional schools.
PARTICIPANTS
Volunteers invited from local Yale Clubs may include the president, vice president, secretary, treasurer, young alumni coordinator, and service coordinator (volunteers serving in other officer positions not mentioned may be invited in consultation with the AYA). Clubs are strongly encouraged to give preference to officers whose terms will continue beyond the current academic year to provide maximum benefit to the Club from this intensive leadership training opportunity.
Other key alumni leaders from local clubs not necessarily officially in any of the roles listed above are also invited to this event, in consultation with AYA staff.
CURRICULUM
The Forum delivers several training modules over the course of the two days. Modules are designed to provide Yale alumni leaders with the tools they need to lead their boards and area alumni. Sessions will include relevant case studies and ample opportunity for participants to share their own success stories and to brainstorm on challenges faced by their organizations.
Topics will cover such areas as mission discernment (what is the role of a Yale Club or your organization today?), principles of strategic planning, best practices in leadership, governance and volunteer management, and creative programming ideas for major cities. The program will also include presentations by alumni groups, the viewing of video clips, and small group breakout sessions.
