The Future of Online Meetings at your Club (Area B52)

We value your views on the future of 'online meetings' at your Club when all restrictions are lifted

The aim of this survey is to gather your opinions about the future of 'online meetings' at your Clubs, once life is back to normal, and physical meetings can be reinstated as usual.

We may of course experience a transition period (hybrid meetings perhaps), but the objective of this survey is to look beyond that and get your opinions on the future, when it is hoped the pandemic will be over and activities fully restored.

The survey only has 10 questions, it is anonymous (except for the Club that you belong to) and can be completed in 5 minutes.

Many thanks for your participation.

Adolfo Tunon

Area Director B52
