Newer Orgs Expanding
I am very interested in the growth of newer organizations, namely those who were founded less than 20 years ago. I have noticed several that have a few chapters, while there are a select few that have expanded at a rapid rate, sometimes doubling even tripling in a 5 year period.
I am curious to know how a fairly new organization’s infrastructure accommodates to such growth. It seems as though most (inter)national boards/headquarters are made up of a small number of officers. Do the more established chapters have to take care of themselves while the national organization seeks out new chapters? What happens when a chapter is struggling due to neglect by the national organization?
What is the true intent for an organization's expansion? Are some organizations simply looking to expand rapidly for namesake? Does rapid expansion a successful organization make?
Thank you for your feedback.
