Stay relevant to your members
To advocate effectively for your members and represent their interests, you need to know what they care about.
The Challenge
It can be hard to keep up with members’ changing needs.
Your members don’t stand still. So your association can’t afford to, either. But evolving what you offer — and how you deliver — can be a challenge, especially with outdated experiences, siloed operations and an audience whose attention is tough to keep.
