Just read the traditions thread with interest and it sparked a question in my mind as to the future of committees. Research shows that
- rates of volunteering have stagnated or have potentially declined
- an individual's likelihood to become a member of an organisation has decreased across generations meaning those born in the 60s/70s are less likely to be members than those born in the 30s/40s
- this membership decline is likely to worsen
- our volunteer workforce is heavily dependent on a core of about 20% that give the most time
- this core is ageing
Bearing all these things in mind and the sterling work conducted by volunteers at golf clubs could we potentially be looking at a situation in 10-20 years time where committees are outdated and the exception rather than the norm?
