Taking on a leadership role within your chapter benefits you in many ways:

It builds trust with the other members. (Credibility)
Experience - This is a great way to learn more about the inside workings of BNI. And the more you know about the organization, the better you can make it work for you.
Confidence - Holding a position within an organization builds personal confidence and other members will have more confidence in your abilities.
Gives you more exposure in front of the chapter. And more exposure translates into more business. (Visibility)
Training - You receive great training as part of your participation. While this training is available to every member, when you are on the team you have even more of a reason to attend!

BNI Minnesota changes Leadership Teams every October. Training is done twice a year, in September we do the full Leadership Training for new teams, and in March we do Advanced Leadership Training. Training is required for Presidents, Vice Presidents and Secretary/Treasurers. You cannot hold one of those positions without attending training twice a year, per our franchise agreement with headquarters.
