Survey

To: EXCO members of Young Entrepreneurs Committee
From: K.L. Ng
Re: Survey

I suggest that we should held a survey of our youth members every time before the EXCO meeting.

Objective:
1) to find out what they want/need so that we can plan event/programme for members
2) to let them evaluate our Youth Group so that we know if we are doing it right

During the EXCO meeting, we will discuss the outcome of survey.

Without survey, we are not able to listen to their voice, we will need to guess what they want, and members will start to leave (it is happening now).
