5-6 December 2022 CONFIRMED for next Association Leaders Symposium

Last week we held our first Association Leaders Symposium and it was a great success. Attendance was made up of International, European, and UK associations, with CEOs / Executive DIrectors taking part together with their Board Chairs / Presidents from Professional bodies, individual member and business member organisations. 

We are looking forward to this next Association Leaders Symposium on 5-6 December 2022.

Let me know if you would like to hear more about the Symposium by sending me an email  to cecilia.spoor@associationexecutives.org - we can then set up a video or regular call or I can answer any initial questions you have over email. 

You can read the testimonials from the previous event on our website. 

The Symposium is a unique opportunity for both Association Leaders - executive and volunteer - to define and discuss their working relationship as well as analyse current issues facing contemporary membership organisations.

The two-half-days event addresses the critical areas of: 

• Building a culture of shared understanding and commitment
• Evaluating working styles and leadership strengths through assessment
• Establishing a common understanding of roles, responsibilities, and relationships
• Evaluating critical components of successful leadership, governance, and strategy
• Identifying essential questions to ask about your association's digital transformation model
• Outlining governance relationships between association board and staff members
• Identifying current and anticipated trends facing leaders of contemporary associations
• Employing the value of research and strategy in knowledge-based decision making
• Applying successful practices and models to strategic planning and thinking
