How to be a successful Chapter Advisor

[ScouterRob]

I have been asked to become a Chapter Advisor, since no one else wanted it. The old chapter advisor is going to train me, but I want to get a head start so I know what questions to ask him.. I have never had another advisor position, so I am clean slate on this.

 

Any suggestions? I am also looking for tips, suggestions, and ideas from anyone.

I became a chapter adviser the start of November but have been an Associate Chapter adviser for several years along with a Clan Adviser. In my lodge, clans are groupings of chapters.

 

My take is to be a successful chapter adviser you need to make the chapter successful (duh). To do that, surround yourself with good Associate Chapter Advisers.

 

Good luck!
