Your members have more options than ever before. All those options mean that they can find choices that are really valuable to them. They don’t have to settle for something that’s just okay — they can find something great. It’s not that they’re flighty or lack loyalty. It’s not that they’re just trying to get one specific thing out of your association. It’s that they want value back for their investment in energy, time and money. And with all those options out there, they can get it. In this new, highly competitive environment, retaining members is a huge challenge and engaging them is more critical than ever before. Your association’s website has a sea of competitors too. Your website is one of the areas where this competitive challenge plays out. Source: CSAE Blog
When you mention “collaboration” in an organizational or association setting, more often than not, people will associate the term with words like “teamwork,” “cooperation” and “networking.” But after working with hundreds of associations and non-profit organizations, I have seen that true organizational collaboration is more than that — it's not just about working together. Collaboration is about finding the alignment or synergy where the collaborators can produce a better outcome than they could have working separately. Source: CBC Ottawa

In a joint statement released Monday, the coalition, representing the Gulf Nova Scotia Fleet Planning Board, Prince Edward Island Fishermen’s Association, Maritime Fishermen’s Union and Pictou Landing First Nation, says it will be seeking the position of all local federal election candidates on Northern Pulp’s proposed effluent pipeline.

By Jim Brown “When my partner and I began our consulting practice in the 1990s, most people had no idea what the word governance even meant. Typically, CEOs and executive directors considered the board to be a necessary nuisance. Neither board members nor senior executives considered board coaching or director development to be of consequence. Indeed, there seemed to be a stigma that accepting any such service would tantamount to admitting they were not qualified to be at the board table.” Order at a 10% discount through September 30, 2019.
