Member Mobilization

The union's most important resource is our membership. We are committed to a strategy of increasing our power through membership education and activism. That is the basic premise of member mobilization. Fundamentally, a union's power at any point in time is nothing more than the total energy and support of its mobilized members.

Impact

The MEC Member Engagement Committee is launching a new team of member advocates, IMPACT (Informed Membership Participation & Activism Communications Team).

  • IMPACT Leaders will serve as informed member advocates while flying the line.
  • IMPACT Leaders will provide current and factual information to the membership and deliver feedback from the members to the Member Engagement Committee. This feedback will then be passed to the proper officers or committee in order to keep a finger on the pulse of the membership and address their questions and concerns. Nothing can replace one-on-one, member-to-member communications.

  • IMPACT Leaders will be assigned ten fellow Flight Attendants to call and keep informed as part of a system-wide phone tree. As an IMPACT Leader, you are the conduit through which this dialogue between the members and officers is maintained.
