Debate 3: Priorities for the Year Ahead

Focus the next 6–12 months on internal cohesion rather than expansion. Invest in collective rituals and learning (knowledge sharing, mutual support) and clarify membership benefits (e.g., logo use, how to include Nets4Dem in proposals).

Cohesive functioning precedes scale. Regular, lightweight rituals sustain learning and trust. Clear, tangible membership benefits drive engagement.

Publish a membership benefits one-pager. Schedule recurring recap learning moments. Define simple contribution paths for members. Set internal success metrics for cohesion. Review readiness for future expansion in 6–12 months.

Unclear value proposition; ritual drift; premature scaling.
