- Increased political education not just for chapter members, but chapter leaders.
- High expectations for chapter priorities and leaders that are consistent and clearly defined
- The creation of a cohesive chapter plan to grow, made through genuine deliberation and planning with the general membership.
- Creating a chapter that ‘plays to win’, taking seriously the need to evaluate our odds of success in any given action and the responsibility to gain and grow in power.
- The creation of a democratic culture in which disagreement, discussion, and critique are seen as vital, healthy activities membership must develop and exercise.
