A Moment to Reflect and Reconnect

Membership is not a fixed thing, nor is it meant to stand still over time. It shifts as our lives, careers, and priorities shift. Taking a moment to be clear about what you want from this year helps ensure your membership remains relevant, meaningful, and aligned with where you are now.

February is a great time to pause and take stock of your place in BPW. Not because anything is wrong, but because with our recent annual membership update and as we now look ahead – as YOU look ahead to 2026 and ask the questions: How did 2025 go? and How do I want 2026 to be for me?

BPW International is also in reflection mode, with an eye toward what comes next. In the coming weeks, you will receive a notification from NFBPWC with a link to a member survey that has been created through a collaboration of the regions. Sandy Thompson is our Ambassador (NAC) for this effort. For more information about the survey – please read Sandy’s article and when you receive the link, please give it your thoughtful attention. Your voice is an important part of our picture.

The Membership Committee has been busy working on reviewing and updating our membership touchpoints. We are reviewing the Membership Brochure, the Membership Benefits page, and other areas of the website. Not only are we looking at language and layout, but also clarity. We want to be sure what we present to the world aligns with what we offer and what our members find of value. The Affiliates are either in the process of finishing their individual brochures or have already completed them.

So let us pause and ask you this:

  • What does membership mean to you right now?
  • What kind of support or opportunities are you hoping it will provide in 2026?
  • What connections, opportunities or learning experiences matter most to you this year?
February Call to Action for Members:
  • Find the Member Benefits page in this magazine and note one benefit you have not used yet.
  • Participate in the upcoming BPW International membership survey.
  • Take a moment to recognize one value your membership has already provided
  • Attend a meeting, training, or event you have not participated in before.
