Message from the Chair
  
As we come to the end of a tumultuous year, I look back on my first six months as chair of NYSAE's Board and realize that even amid the tremendous challenges and uncertainty, we have made great strides in moving NYSAE and the association profession forward.

Weeks after I stepped into this role July 1, the chairs of NYSAE's committees, engagement groups and task forces held their annual retreat - virtually - to discuss goals, strategic priorities, and to begin to plan for 2020 - 2021.

Article Spotlight
  
A number of people have inquired about how Boards should govern in times of crisis. The short answer is, they should govern well. Good governance is good governance – crisis or no crisis.

A history of practicing good governance becomes even more important and advantageous to an organization during turbulent times. High performing Boards, in partnership with effective executive leadership, are well positioned to add considerable value to their respective organizations in response to and during recovery from the COVID-19 crisis.

Join executive coach Helen Dayen to get uncomfortable! Sound tempting? It should! Transitions and change sometimes mean you have to stop doing what has made you successful in the past and try something that is hard and unfamiliar. THAT is how growth happens. Join us to:
• Assess what beliefs and behavior you might have to let go of to grow professionally as a leader
• Learn how to overcome your fear of failing at something new
• Build confidence understanding what you will achieve next, not what you have been praised for already
• Redefine your relationship with Power and how it is connected to growth.
