What is the role of an ADPi consultant?

The role of an ADPi consultant is to help chapters improve and strengthen their operations. Consultants are typically experienced members of the organization who provide guidance and support on various aspects of chapter management, helping to enhance the overall effectiveness and success of the chapter. This role involves assessing current practices, offering best practices, and implementing strategies that foster growth, engagement, and better adherence to the values and standards of the organization.

Focusing on operational improvement is essential because it ensures that each chapter can better serve its members and the community. This assistance might cover areas such as leadership development, member retention, event planning, and fostering a strong chapter culture.

The other options describe activities that, while important, do not encapsulate the primary focus of a consultant. Fundraising events, recruitment, and national marketing campaigns are typically handled by specific teams or roles within the organization rather than the consultant’s core functions.
