First Meeting: Thursday, 4th May 2017 at 20:00
This working group aims to explore the effects (positive, negative and neutral) of membership growth on Makerspace. We want to avoid making any decisions based on gut feeling and instead provide a solid evidence base.
If you would like to join the group, please PM @gwg or just come to the first meeting
Scope
To explore how the growth of membership affects the organisation and it’s members, specifically:
- Income and expenses
- Human resource contention
- Physical resource contention
- Social cohesion
Expected Outcomes
- Membership census (with view to be able to repeat in future if desirable)
- Range of forecasted financial scenarios for long-term planning
- Identify resource contention issues and recommend solutions
- Provide case studies of similar organisations’ experiences with growth
- Collective summary of the state of the space
