All organizations should grow, not grow die and then grow back. If that happens actually there is no growth and all previous efforts are wasted. There is no evolution too. Each term officers will get stuck in a stupid cycle of same old problems and nothing will change. In other words if u begin staying in a cave u might advance to stay on trees but eventually fall back staying in a cave. Sadly this is what is happening in the CSSes nowadays.
In every organization its perseverance should have a good continuation from its predecessors to its juniors. In every term of exco there should be new faces, old faces and ripe faces. ripe faces meaning those who were juniors b4 now holding higher or still in post of exco. same goes for the old faces. This ensures there is continuation and flow from different generations and mindsets. Every term exco shud scout for newbies who are potential and prime them too taking them into active involvement in activities.
ensuring proper continuity ensure continuous survival of a group.
Elections should be held on neutral grounds where people are not elected based on popularity, out of scapegoat, and other wrong reasons. It shoudl not be based on clicks too. Not race based as well.
How to be a leader is in my previous post.

KLCC and How
council - the definitions spits out the function:
1.
an assembly of persons summoned or convened for consultation, deliberation, or advice.
2.
a body of persons specially designated or selected to act in an advisory, administrative, or legislative capacity: the governor's council on housing.
3.
(in certain British colonies or dependencies) an executive or legislative body assisting the governor.
4.
an ecclesiastical assembly for deciding matters of doctrine or discipline.
5.
New Testament. the Sanhedrin or other authoritative body.
What KLCC can emulate is definition 1, 2 and 4.
However a mistake is done as the current people percive it as a bigger CSS and this brings about double work.
KLCC functioning as a council as per-defination need not be a double work but more
of a casual one. Its a consultative body.
KLCC for me shud function as :
1) a body where presidents of various css meet to share information from their own
css.
2) share css problems and be the area where it can be discussed and solved.
3) resource centre whereby css can come to it asking for help to conduct activities
4) resource gathering from census, to expertise
5) provide formations for all students at levels not condusive done in css level
although some of them are being carried out but the important ones are not in focus and too many activities are being carried out. the formations carried out shud be in away not messing up into the burden of individual css and finally on the president.
a suggestive board can be established with proper titles and relevant responsibility given too.
a board of office bearers are to be elected headed by a honorary secretary with 2 other assistants, a treasurer and publicity director. these 5 people will head all activities of KLCC which are concluded in meetings with all the presidents.
As for man power to further help in organization any student can volunteer and the presidents are to outsource and help them. An ad hoc committee is formed and ran.
1 Council meeting will be mainly to plan yrly events max of 4 and dates, organization of each respective event can begin ASAP and separately.
Other council meetings are to run tru all the other functions and just to get updates of progress of the activities being organized which can be held 2 months once. No further planing.
Planning meetings for the activities are done separately involving the ad hoc committee only and they plan everything.
Activities of KLCC shud be same for every term, the variety of activities are better left at css level. Suggested formations@activites are : leadership camp, Lenten campaign, KLCC camp, 1 other kept as optional. The other existing camps are as the ICG, national camp and few others.
For finances - collection from students and fund raising are ways. Collection is better.
work wud be much easier if templates on how to organize events are established. some of the suggested template are like participation forms, datelines, financial statements.
Suggestive flow of one whole term.
1st meeting - planning camp (presidents and office bearers)
~ plan yrly activity and set dates
~ discuss the focus of this term KLCC direction (wud give direction for
the theme for each activity later)
~ start of out sourcing volunteers
~ setting up templates/ backbone for the organization of each activity
~ setting up publicity machinery and start publicity (by word of cos)
~ setting up networking/ web
~ setting up database bank
2nd and further meeting - sharing and gathering of info from every css
- discussion about happenings in css
- update from ad hoc committee of latest dvp of activities
- realignment of direction of activites
3rd meeting - preparation of AGM
4th meeting - AGM
at every meeting non-pressies can also attend to create exposure towards KLCC and not make KLCC an exclusive club only for presidents but each campus if there is any voting wud oni have one vote coming from its president of its rep.
other casual activities can be held at the liberty of the council such as bbq etc best taken charge of the respective presidents.
the structure and function of klcc shud be made clear so that if anybody ask what is KLCC a clear picture can be etched in the minds.
Currently besides how it functions is messy for me. the president is based on rotation then every 150 yrs ones will UM be a president.
A organization structure shud be clear and function able and to the least flawless. The rest is human. With a gud organization even the human factor risk can be reduced well low enough for it to be insignificant. so gud only donkeys CANT manage it. if u r better then a donkey then gudlah.
