Sponsored by Hospitality Ventures Management Group
In an association world of ever-increasing competition, of customers who seem to have less time and read fewer communications, of generational and societal shifts that are quickly impacting organizational structure, our associations have to stand out in order to grow. In fact, our associations have to produce the right solutions for the right members in the right format, all while generating experiences and interactions that are easy, positive and, where possible, fun. And we can’t rely on the long-standing premise that what we create will be an evergreen solution - instead, we must continually experiment, prototype, learn and grow. Learn how to create member-centric experiences at your next meeting.
- Examine the basic premise of the design thinking approach
- Workshop your own member-focused experience with facilitator feedback and support
- Develop actionable plans to make further member-centric improvements when you return to the office

 Because I Said I Would
Speaker: Alex Sheen
We live in a world that often does not respect the importance of a Promise. It is too easy to say, "I'll get to it" or "tomorrow." In many ways we have become numb to broken commitments and disappointment. Alex Sheen believes that every individual has the strength to become a person of their word. As the Founder of an international social movement, Alex inspires others to become more accountable to their promises through compelling, real-life examples from the because I said I would movement. Integrity and accountability can truly change humanity for the better.
