Key trends, like generational shift and the social media revolution, are putting pressure on associations to make significant changes to their existing cultures. In this CEO-only session, we'll dig into the unique challenges and responsibilities CEOs have in growing, nurturing and changing culture within their organizations, especially in light of disruptive changes happening in the workplace. Authors Jamie Notter and Maddie Grant will present some frameworks they developed in their book Humanize that help make sense of new and emerging business environments. We'll follow up with a thoughtful discussion about what this means for you, the CEO. Come prepared for a frank and thought-provoking discussion about the new behaviors, new areas of focus, and even new ways of thinking required of CEOs who want to intentionally shape the culture of their organizations and workplaces.

If the pace of change has gone through the roof, then why are we all still operating within organizational cultures that haven't changed in decades? We struggle to manage important trends like generational shift and the social media revolution, while failing to recognize that our cultures may be standing in our way of progress. In this session, association thought leaders and authors Jamie Notter and Maddie Grant will help you understand how today's pressures are demanding important changes in the way we lead and manage our associations. Drawing from research and lessons outlined in their book, Humanize, Notter and Grant will dig into the important elements of culture that need strengthening and provide guidance on how to manage culture change (nothing traumatic, and maybe even without calling it culture change!). Participants in the session will complete a brief culture assessment and learn how to bring their own association cultures "up to code."

In this special presentation, Mark Murphy will share key tactics to building a championship organization and answer audience questions.
