Membership Growth:
What Has Worked and What Hasn't?
AMSOV will hold a webinar on Friday, April 4, 2025, at 12:00 Eastern time (other time zones noted above) on the subject of Membership Growth: What Has Worked and What Hasn't?
This webinar will be of interest to all Symphony volunteer coordinators, volunteer organizations, leaders of volunteer organizations, volunteer committee members, individual AMSOV members and anyone interested in growing the membership of their volunteer organization.
Our presenter for this webinar is Leslie Nossaman of the the Houston Symphony and the Houston Symphony League.
Leslie is a Governing Director for the Houston Symphony Society Board and is on multiple committees with the Houston Symphony Board. She is also the Chair for the Livestream and Recording Studio Consortium.
Leslie is the Houston Symphony League’s current President-Elect and will be the President for the 2025-2026 season. This is her fifth year to be Vice President of Membership for the Houston Symphony League.

Leslie has substantial "hands on" experience working on increasing the volunteer membership of her symphony volunteer organization. As a bit of background, the Houston Symphony League had lost 11 members per year on the average for 19 years before Leslie became the Vice President for Membership in the 2019-2020 season. A five-year Strategic Plan was created to stop the member loss and to grow the membership. During the five years of the plan, the membership in the Houston Symphony League more than doubled, and as of this time the League continues to grow.
What are the secrets to this success? In this webinar, Leslie will review the Strategic Plan for growth in volunteer membership and detail how this plan was implemented to achieve these outstanding results.
Leslie will be happy to take your questions at the conclusion of the webinar. If you will be participating, please think of the questions you may want to ask her.
