ODI Experience, Grapevine, Texas by Alana LatiolaisAs we discussed how to put ourOrganization Development Institute(ODI) experience into words, we justsmiled at each other. What a trulyinvaluable experience! There are somany words that came to mind aswe debriefed after each day <strong>of</strong> training.A few <strong>of</strong> those words are motivational,strategy, diversity, camaraderie,sharing, change, growth,and results.Melissa Nemeth and Melinda Blonshine were thrilled toparticipate in the Community Impact track. They learnednew strategies for increasing participation in communityprojects through education and membership satisfaction.Morgan Green and Alana Latiolais enthusiastically attendedthe Membership Development track. They were taughtstrategies on how to recruit, train, and retain members.And all <strong>of</strong> us learned about the importance <strong>of</strong> diversity inour <strong>Junior</strong> <strong>League</strong>.Each day we were in awe <strong>of</strong> the ideas and experiences thatthe fellow <strong>Junior</strong> <strong>League</strong> members had to share. Therewere moments that we just could not write fast enough tocapture each and every word, but we captured hundreds!We are looking forward to helping implement new strategiesand watching the knowledge we gained permeate intoour <strong>Junior</strong> <strong>League</strong>.There were <strong>Junior</strong> <strong>League</strong>s from across the United States andthree other countries which varied in size from 3,000 activemembers to as few as 50 active members. Each <strong>Junior</strong><strong>League</strong> represented was unique but we all share the samemission. Although we learned many new ideas, we were alsoreminded <strong>of</strong> how great the <strong>Junior</strong> <strong>League</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Boca</strong> <strong>Raton</strong> trulyis. We were so proud to share the great practices <strong>of</strong> our veryown <strong>Boca</strong> <strong>League</strong> and were always met with excitement fromother delegates - they just couldn’t wait to get home to implementsome <strong>of</strong> our programs and techniques! We all appreciatethis opportunity and would like to thank each memberfor giving us this experience.left - right (top) Morgan Green & Alana Latiolais,(bottom) Melissa Nemeth & Melinda BlonshineMarta I.
