In this week’s episode, the Basket Case Bros discuss casual (not causal) vacancies on committees. When it comes to filling a vacant position on a committee, Michael and Steve have seen it all – from clubs that think they have to shut up shop just because they can’t fill a non-essential role, to committees who don’t want to make any tough decisions, so instead get the members to decide everything for them. No matter which end of the ‘casual vacancies’ spectrum you’re on, Michael and Steve are here to talk you through how to avoid under (or over) cooking your process for filling vacant positions. With the help of the late Nick Renton (aka the man who knew everything there was to know about meetings and organisations), Basket Case Clubs will guide you through everything you need to know, so grab your favourite drink, chuck on those headphones, and join in on this week’s episode!
