Description

The biggest distinction between a trend and a fad is time. Fads fade whereas trends tend to solve problems or provide better solutions. Trends have the power to influence and change behavior. Organizations that ignore trends will just need to catch up later. What got your organization where it is today may not help it in the future. From new membership models to innovative ways to attract attendees to your conferences, organizations need to adopt some of the trends occurring in society if they wish to attract and engage members and customers.    Sheri Jacobs, FASAE, CAE, author of the Art of Membership, will identify the 6 trends healthcare associations cannot ignore, raise questions you should be discussing with your staff and leadership and provide examples of solutions being adopted by some organizations.

Educational Objectives and/or Takeaways:

  • Develop new approaches to engaging the cord-cutting generation
  • Expand their definition of membership and understand new ways to increase your reach.
  • Understand the trends they should be watching that will impact their organization
