(Thank you to Murali Sundaram, Executive Director, BNI Chennai for his inspiration)Have you heard the management principle what gets measured gets done?Absolutely true. In business world we need to measure and monitor all our activities thereby we will know whether we are moving in the right directionI’m Cys Bronner, Executive Director for BNI’s Greater Los Angeles regions and today, I'm going to share with you one important coordinator role for every chapter called the Go Green Coordinator The Go Green Coordinator is vital for the success of every member because we all come together, and we help each other in participating in various BNI chapter activities Another job as The Go Green Coordinator is to tell all our members whether all of us are putting our efforts in the right direction - that's the reason in BNI we have created a system called traffic light system, like the traffic light has a green amber and red.In BNI we have created a very interesting Benchmark or measurement system based on traffic lights called The Power of One Report. This terrific tool tells all the members whether we are going in the right directionIf you are The Go Green Coordinator for your chapter (or maybe being considered for that role,) let me share with you what are the things that you can do before the meeting during the meeting and even after the meeting because only when you are very clear on your particular role you can actually help other members also to perform at the best possible way Number one is every month your regional office will be sharing the Traffic Light style colors in the Power of One Report of all the members. You’ll want to talk to your chapter Leadership. your president will share this with you or they will ask the Regional Office to add you to the distribution list. Before the meeting get the entire data of all the members what are their scores, where are they right now.  Any member more than 70 points they are in the green! Members who are between 50 to 70 are amber, or yellow if you prefer. 30 to 50 points places your referral partner in the red As those chapter members who have accumulated less than 30 based on their activities, they become Gray members Remember that, you know it's very important that once you get that report to communicate to the Mentor Coordinator and of course, individually to every member either via phone e-mail WhatsApp whichever is convenient to you maybe explain the members why becoming green is really important you know why green is important you know because if you are a green member above 70% - 70 points it means you are highly contributing member - when you contribute you actually enhance your visibility and thereby enhance your credibility you are telling every member in the chapter that you are a more responsible member ready to understand everyone's business and ready to contribute Remember our Givers Gain philosophy So being a green member is one way of exhibiting your givers gain principle to the entire chapter So maybe as a go green coordinator you have to explain the benefits of why every member must become green thereby, they can enhance their visibility and credibility and also their profitability So, talk to members. If some members are struggling to become green maybe you can break down the entire report and tell them “You know, this month just focus on adding five more points” Don't give them big numbers, give them only +5 points to add up in their score and motivate them as they move forward. You can even give them one activity to help make that happen. Do One-to-Ones with those members who areBNI4Success Podcasts The Voice of BNI Greater Los Angeles; Where we’ll talk about referral networking that works!http://bnipodcast4success.com
