What You Need to Know Before Your Next Association Technology Decision
October 6th, 9:00 -1:00 CT | Salesforce Tower, Chicago
Considering a technology change in the next 24 months? You should be in this room. The association technology market looks very different from what it did even one year ago, and making a move without the full picture risks a mistake you’ll end up living with for years.
In this half-day working session for association and nonprofit leadership, we’ll make sure you have the full picture and know what to do with it.
The technology landscape has shifted significantly and shows no signs of slowing. New platforms, new architectures, and new approaches to membership management are revolutionizing what’s possible for associations. But it’s hard to see the bigger picture when you’re heads down in the day-to-day.
This session is designed to close the gap, helping you run a more rigorous process while giving you an updated picture of what the market looks like today. By focusing on “why” and “what” before moving on to the “how”, you’ll be ready to run a smooth and effective transition.
After the workshop, you’ll be able to:
Meet your peers and get settled in for a morning of learning.
We’ll set the tone for the day and get a read of where everyone is in their process. Then we’ll work together to build a priority plan for the day ahead.
Identify the most common points of failure and work through an audit of your long-term goals, current state, and the gaps between them.
Map your team’s current capacity and capability against what your goals require, and begin to build a plan to close the gap.
