Day 1 - THE INCUBATOR: Developing the Ideas
Association Innovation and Good Governance Practices
By Bob Harris, CAE
We’ve all heard it—associations must adapt to remain relevant—but it’s daunting, especially if we’re faced with resistance from our volunteer leadership. However, if we can’t engage our members now, we certainly won’t be engaging them in the future.
Association management guru Bob Harris, CAE, will describe how good governance can elevate your association’s performance, and subsequently engagement. He also knows that each association has its own model and counts on us to share our best practices. What we learn will prepare us for the deep-dive sessions on Day 2.
Bob Harris will share:
Bob has over 30 years of experience with associations, chambers and other nonprofits. His seminars are interactive, focused on core-knowledge and organizational (realistic) capacity.
