Associations need visionaries to provide breakthrough ideas for their members. But too often, when such employees are found and hired, their tenure is much shorter than anticipated! (And maybe it's happened to you!) Bill Jerome and Curt Powell, authors of "The Disposable Visionary: a survival guide for change agents," have spent over 10 years studying the paradox of why organizations say they want to change agents and then terminate them when they persistently challenge the status quo. They will share their findings and the keys to successfully fighting internal politics and creating an association that empowers and supports new ideas and innovation.

So you have a social media presence. Great! But what is next? How do you keep users engaged? Hear 5 proven strategies from 5 panelists and learn how you can easily implement these ideas into your social media strategy.
Your organization has a powerful story to tell and so do you. Finding your message and your story takes the curiosity of a child and the heart of a warrior. We can train you to think like a journalist to capture the stories that speak to the heart of what you do and drive results. We all want to see ourselves in other people and we often make sense of the world through shared experiences. Stories help us connect on a human level. They make complex issues real for us by putting a human face on them. They inspire. They engage. Through stories, we move people to think, feel and do. We'll show you the storytelling techniques you've seen in your favorite movies and novels and share how you can use them to tell your medical society's story.
“What three words describe your profession?” It looks like an obvious question, but don’t be fooled. Taking time to ask—and building engagement around responses—can bolster everything from your association’s sense of belonging to your role in helping members convey what they do. This case study will explore how the AGS translated this simple question into a campaign for celebrating enthusiasm, spotlighting AGS leadership, and raising funds for our foundation (all with little-to-no budget).
