Cocktail Style Rotation for WRC?

[AlphaXi_Husky]

The first thing I would do is contact your regional (or national) recruitment volunteer person (director, officer, whatever she's called). She will have a ton of resources and can help guide you. Be sure and loop in your recruitment advisor as well.


Secondly, this cocktail style rotation you're describing IMO can be very difficult with women who are shy, as you admit members of your chapter are. It takes the most bubbly, confident, friendly person to be able to float in and out of conversations with ease and grace. I have seen people who were thought of as great recruiters (and were for the most part), struggle and come off awkward when trying to float.


If I were to try and implement this in your situation, I would probably have 50 people designated as the women who pick up PNMs at the door. You could then go one of two ways:
- Have chapter members and PNMs sit or stand in groups of 4, so that two chapter members are meeting two PNMs in a group conversation. Other chapter members can then float in and out to break up the conversations a bit
- Have chapter members remain in pairs with just their one PNM and have a number of people float in and out.


Regardless, IMO it would be best to set up specific bump/float groups, as in these 4 people who are paired with PNMs are floated in on by these 3 floaters, and that group of 7 chapter members is consistent between rounds.


Hopefully that helps you. But seriously, talk to people in your org. They'll be able to help the most.
