Article Spotlight
  
At the December Executive Women in Nonprofits (EWIN) Engagement Group, Joanne Rencher, shared a thought-provoking presentation on the topic of Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Rather than approach the complexities of this subject from the more familiar constructs, Joanne challenged participants to think and behave differently. Among many questions, two in particular loomed large in the room: despite the countless dollars spent, and with Chief Diversity Officers hired and initiatives underway, have we truly made room for this work or have we reduced it to solely demographics and new hires?

Why did you choose the field of association management, and what about it keeps you going?

My journey is uniquely different from many of my colleagues as I am now employed at the very organization I once chaired as national President.  I am humbled enough to vocalize that I am not here today because I am the perfect success model; I am not here because I got everything right or because my life is a straight curve.  I initially, I went to nursing school wanting to graduate with a stable JOB.  Instead, I found my passion, my career in association management.  The funny thing is I found it in nursing school!  I saw me, or someone who looked liked me in a video and said, “I can do that” – “I need to do that!!!”--  The rest is history.  This beacon of light for me was Dr. Beverly Malone, CEO of the National League for Nursing, and seeing her allowed me the ability to see how I could help countless individuals by embracing my calling into servant leadership.  So, I joined NSNA and discovered the enormous gratification of becoming a nursing leader.  I found that both association management and nursing are not just careers, but rather, a privilege to help other people, exercise compassion, and to care. What keeps me going now is the unique ability to serve a membership that is ok advocating for change, which sometimes means going against the status quo, by going against the odds and positively influence the lives of the people.

March 12th 8:30-10 AM

With complex rules governing the nonprofit sector, many nonprofits may incorporate advocacy into key parts of their work, but are unsure of the next steps. This event will discuss the differences between lobbying and advocacy, and what a nonprofit can do to raise the voice of its members. It will cover the legal aspects of lobbying versus advocacy, with a particular focus on 501 (c)(3) and 501 (c)(6) organizations. Chief Executives will then discuss what is often on an advocacy "wish list" and how that aligns with organizational implementation. Government affairs and communications professionals will discuss bringing the plan to action; from galvanizing grassroots support, communicating setbacks / progress, to engaging in effective meetings with legislators.
Member Price: $35 / Nonmember Price: $65
