New research shows that while association leaders recognize the importance of diversity and inclusion, many still have work to do when it comes to incorporating D&I practices throughout their organization’s work. (Associations Now)

If you’ve been in the association world for any length of time, you’ve probably experienced the silo mentality that exists in many organizations. What if I were to tell you there is a way to bring about organizational transformation without any talk of cultural change or killing off the silos? Would you be willing to step outside the box and be a force for change in your organization? (Association Success)

Many salespeople and entrepreneurs are familiar with the saying "Your first sale is always to yourself." They also know that this is usually your toughest sale – you have to convince yourself that you have something of value to offer before you can convince anyone else. It’s a simple, but very powerful notion, and I think it is one with which many organizations struggle – often unconsciously. (Tagoras)

A fundamental disconnect exists between what boards think makes for an ideal CEO and what actually leads to high performance. The CEO Genome Project, a 10-year study, set out to identify the specific attributes that differentiate high-performing CEOs. Its most important discovery was that successful chief executives tend to demonstrate four specific behaviors that prove critical to their performance. (Harvard Business Review)

Associations now reside in a much different security landscape than just a few years ago. In the old days, as long as no one hated you and you weren’t on the radar of troublemakers, you didn’t have to worry. Now, ransomware is automated, inexpensive, and pervasive. The old defensive approach is no longer sufficient. Along with solid backup practices, your organization must have a proactive, security-aware culture to protect it and your constituents from cybercriminals and ransomware. (Delcor)
