Welcome to Society Schmooze

This is Association World's main forum for you to exchange ideas and make contacts with your colleagues who work with other associations.
 

How To Participate

We have raised a few topics for discussion, but would encourage you to raise other questions or ask for help on issues with which you are struggling.

To participate, just type in your comments on this form and click the "send message" button. If you then click "reload," you'll see your message added.

 If it's your first time posting, review the guidelines under Keep It Clean below.

What Do You Think?
Following are some questions to which we we would like to hear your answers:

  • What trends will have the greatest impact on associations over the next 10 years?
     

 What makes strategic planning fail? What can be done to make it more successful?
 

 What techniques have you found to be particularly successful for identifying individuals likely to be effective leaders? How do you get them involved in the organizations and help them acquire the skills they need to lead?

Future Schmooze

If we receive enough response, we will divide Society Schmooze into different breakout sessions or discussion groups, so that you can focus on the subjects of greatest interest to you.

What subjects do you think would warrant a separate discussion? What do you want to talk with other association leaders about? Let us know.
 

Keep It Clean

In order to make this forum successful, we would ask you to observe the following guidelines for participation:

  • stick to topics relevant to associations and their leaders and executives
     
  • do not promote specific products or services, although it's OK to mention them in response to specific requests for information or help
     
  • if you have comments on a post that are not likely to be of interest to others, please send e-mail directly to the author
     
  • don't use profanity or words or expressions likely to offend anyone
