TENNESSEE BETA UNIT OF THE NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF PARLIAMENTARIANS® WELCOMES YOU
Better Meetings for Democratic Organizations
The Tennessee Beta Unit serves persons and organizations in the Greater Memphis area who are interested in learning and using parliamentary procedure for more effective and productive meetings in church, civic, social, government, and business organizations. Visitors are always welcome to our meetings.
“The great lesson for democracies to learn is for the majority to give to the minority a full, free opportunity to present their side of the case, and then for the minority, having failed to win a majority to their views, gracefully to submit and to recognize the action as that of the entire organization, and cheerfully to assist in carrying it out, until they can secure its repeal.”
Gen. Henry Martyn Robert (1837-1923), Original author of Robert's Rules of Order, the first edition of which was published in 1876.
