"required reading" for chairs

[falieson]

I am the new VP for my colony and I was thinking about how to go about getting all my chairs on the same page for winter quarter when they take over their positions. I have read many of the popular self improvement books like "7 habits of highly effective people" and "how to win friends and influence people".

I was wondering if anyone has participated in something similar to this and how it went as well as any suggestions you may have for material along these lines.

My goal is to unify my chairs on the importance of organization, delegation, and timeliness. By giving them the same book to read over winter break, and we can return and talk about it - maybe share notes or whatever we will grow together and expand based on a point of common knowledge.

We are at a critical point either we are going to explode this quarter, charter, and be the best new fraternity on campus or ... we aren't and a lot of us will have wasted a lot of time and money.

Thanks for your help and suggestions!
