For any chapter to be successful, it must be organized.  The brothers must create a shared vision for the chapter and set forth goals.  Through the proper organization of tasks, officers, and committees the chapter will successfully achieve those goals.  When brothers are able to work together towards a common goal that is ultimate form of brotherhood.
