Are your fraternities and sororities held back by chapters and members who don’t get it, or who just don’t care? Do you have members who are there for the wrong reasons?
Well, it’s time to drag them, push them, fine them, beg them or dare them to attend David Stollman’s keynote.
In a matter of just a few hours, David was able to get buy in from students that I've been working two years to get. His direct approach made them look seriously at what they could do better, and they are completely motivated to get going!
Caitlin Roberts, CSU, Long Beach
David definitely placed the foundation to our next step in creating a better Greek Community here at Radford University. Every participant had something to take back to their Council and their organization.
James Cho, Radford University
I think that he had amazing ideas about mundane things that people don't even think about changing normally. The students got a lot out of it, and almost didn't realize that they were learning things, because they were having so much fun along the way.
Heather Shohet, Willamette University
David Stollman really opened some eyes during his presentation. He gave our community the swift kick in the rear that it needed and I see it being a lasting effect at Florida Tech.
Jonathon Perout, Florida Institute of Technology
Buy In or GET OUT!
Too often, good leaders and good chapters are not able to succeed because they are too busy cleaning up after the ones that don’t get it. Fixing their problems or fighting their negative image? Imagine how much more we could accomplish if they were part of the solution instead of part of the problem.
David will say what you wish you could. Let him confront them in his funny, interactive and moving style.
His message will inspire those that want to care about the core values of Fraternity and Sorority Life—fellowship, service, leadership and scholarship. He will challenge your members to embrace the best and get rid of the rest. It will touch on topics that range across all major issues facing today’s members.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
• Participants will leave with a renewed motivation to live up to their ritual’s teachings.
• Participants will understand the degrading effect perpetuating negative stereotypes has on the Greek community.
• Participants will understand their role in breaking the stereotypes and holding others accountable to do the same.
• Participants will remember that their brother or sister is their personal responsibility and that communities are responsible to, and for each other.
Fraternity and Sorority Life Recruitment Programs
Not “Quantity vs. Quality,” Quantity AND Quality!
In the Fraternity and Sorority Life world, it’s often “survival of the fittest.” Some fraternities and sororities thrive while others hang near extinction. Struggling groups need to approach member recruitment in new ways in order to survive. You are what you recruit.
David brings consulting experience with nearly 350 Fraternity and Sorority Life systems nationwide to help students improve their ability to recruit today’s complex student achiever. With his help, chapters have quadrupled their memberships and increased their bid acceptance more than 50 percent. Topics such as risk management, hazing and new member education are part of his holistic approach to member excellence.
David truly relates to his audiences, using humor and real-life scenarios to help members understand how to better market the product of “fraternity.” His keynote, Fraternal Darwinism: The Evolution of Greek Life, is the answer for fraternity or sorority chapters or entire systems that have grown stagnant.
David makes sure you never have to say “Oops!” about a member again.
David is available for all-day workshops or for shorter keynote sessions. He is also available to consult with fraternities and sororities for longer consultations, which include several visits.
