Occasionally our BNI Living Skies chapter holds “closed meetings” to focus on the behind-the-scenes stuff—how we keep the chapter running smoothly, how we improve the member experience, and how we tackle issues as they come up.
This morning was a really productive one, and we still made time to recognize a couple members:
• Adhiya earned the Notable Networker Award (well deserved!). She couldn’t make it today to receive it from me, but we’ll get it to her next meeting.
• Allan took home the Dundee Award for Best Presentation—and honestly, the winning moment was his story about fixing a dryer by removing a dead bird from the exhaust vent. 😂 That one hit home for a few people in the room.
Big congrats to both of you—this is what makes BNI work: real relationships, real stories, and people showing up for each other.
Occasionally, we have "closed meetings", where we discuss chapter-related topics. This could be ensuring our chapter runs smoothly, ideas shared on how to improve the experience for members and other issues that arise. Today was a productive meeting, and we still awarded some members.
Unfortunately, Adhiya wasn't able to make it to receive her Notable Networker Award from JayDee, but Allan was in the room to take the Dundee award for best presentation. The winning factor waas the fact that he "fixed a dryer by removing a dead bird from the exhaust vent", which really hit home for some members! Well done, Allan!
