 I found GROWTH to be an incredibly helpful, no-fuss guide for anyone like me involved in member-based organizations. The way Keith Christopher lays out how to design surveys and run focus groups feels clear and immediately useful. We’re already putting his checklists, templates and suggestions to work as we build our next CMC-Ontario member survey and I’m confident this will help us gather meaningful feedback. On behalf of CMC-Ontario (and myself), thank you Keith for offering such a practical resource.

I think this book will be a treasure for survey beginners and will resonate well with those more
seasoned in the field. “Growth” is the kind of book that the reader will return to many times after the initial reading.
