Parliamentary Insight Report
At our FBLA Executive Board
Meetings, we use Parliamentary Procedure and Robert’s Rules of Order, which
provide structure to the meeting to promote efficiency. All members and
advisors attending the meeting are welcome to make motions and participate in
the discussions. To do so, one must stand and address the chair. Once
recognized, he or she is welcome to make a motion, saying, “I move that…” or
share his opinion on the matter. However,
only the State Officers are permitted to vote on the motions however. With that
in mind, all meeting attendees are encouraged to join the discussion and share
their viewpoints on the agenda topics.

Institute for Leaders Report
How many of you have been
ridiculed at one point or another and did not know how to respond? Well, as the keynote speaker of IFL would
say, tell them to “Whoop, shut it down.”
This lesson set the positive tone maintained for the entirety of this
incredible conference.
We weren’t there solely for
the friends and balmy weather, but also for the workshops and clinics. The workshops attended were separated into
three separate tracks. All attendees
participated in one, with Holly in the middle level, and Kindal, Lacie, and
Theresa in the most advanced of the existing options.
Not only was it an opportunity to acquire new leadership skills, but it also
was an incredible networking opportunity.
The people the state officers met there were diverse and impressively
talented. We hope more people will
attend the next Institute for Leaders so that they too can enhance their
leadership skills and establish more contacts.

State Scrapbook and Slide
Show Report
The 2005 - 2006 South Dakota
State FBLA scrapbook is starting its construction, being filled with all the
memories we’ve had so far. The theme for the scrapbook is, “Unlock Your
Potential”. I ask that all the chapters
submit pictures and articles to me as soon as possible. Remember there is space in the book for
everyone and it’s up to you to fill it. Please send the pictures to me as soon
as possible so I have time to put them in the book.
State
Newsletter Report
As this new academic year has begun, so too has the work on
the newsletter that I promised last year.
The new format will be on Mac’s publisher program. It is crucial that contact be established
between myself and the local reporters.
The point of the state newsletter is to be an informative resource,
letting each chapter know what the others are doing and plan to do. This can only be accomplished if the
reporters consistently update me on their chapter’s actions. After the newsletter is completed, it will be
transferred to a PDF format and put onto the state’s website. I look forward to a year of success for
Web
Page Report
The website as much work to be done. First of all, all the state officers need to
get their web pages done. Second, I’ll
be working to re-format the website, so there will not be scroll buttons on the
home page, and with my ideas and the ideas I have received from FBLA’ers I hope
to make the website more interesting. On to a brighter note, there has been
work done already to the website: the
state officer picture, correct dates for executive meetings, and the FBLA
pledge has been added to the home page, so all FBLA’ers will be able to know
it.
