  • If any of you have some tried and true ideas for showing staff appreciation, recognizing staff or encouraging staff, I'd really appreciate hearing them! I lead a team of 5 within a larger organization. I'm looking for things that I can do for my team beyond what HR and the larger organization does (which is primarily limited to an annual staff award). Thank you! Beth
  • We still have four openings for the Sarah Sladek  program on April 2, at the Pfister. You must register by March 17. Sorry, no onsite registration available for this program. Go to Execinc.com to register. You must be an association CEO or staff person interested in membership. Dave
  • We're looking at bringing in a third party to conduct and complete a content marketing audit process this year in order to help us maximize the relevancy of the content we're delivering to our members. Have any of you ever conducted this process using a third party? If so, do you have a vendor you would recommend that we contact? Lawrence
