Academy 2014 Growth - A real turnaround: Just do it!Anna Munsterhjelm
The document outlines how Scouting and Guiding in Finland grew its membership from 45,000 to over 10,000 in three years through a strategic growth plan. It describes the obstacles to growth they initially faced, including lack of awareness about how to join and not enough local groups.

The plan was successful due to having a clear goal, communicating the vision, involving everyone, and working hard to implement initiatives while being willing to try new approaches. Local groups were also engaged by helping them identify how they could contribute to growth in their own areas.
