Which groups should you join?
The key is to diversify your activities. One type of business organisation won’t serve all your needs. Depending on your time, consciously select a well-rounded mix of groups or associations, with no two of the same type. If you have associates, partners or employees, consider their participation when deciding which groups each of you may attend.
