As
of July 10, 2024, there are only 175 days until the second half of this decade
begins.
To
navigate the accelerating and intensifying challenges of the second sixty
months of The Turbulent Twenties, association boards must set a higher standard
of stewardship, governing, and foresight [SGF] and become fit-for-purpose. This
work must begin immediately, and it will require a fearless reckoning with the
orthodox beliefs, i.e., the deep-seated assumptions we make about how the world
works, that underpin our current understanding of boards and governing.
This
interactive learning session will invite participants to question several
significant orthodox beliefs of association governing and suggest their own for
discussion with their Governance SIG colleagues. In addition, participants will
learn more about the Fit-for-Purpose Association Board Director Learning Series, which will be presented by Association Forum and Foresight First LLC
beginning in September 2024.
You
will learn:
- What are orthodox beliefs and why are they detrimental to the work of association boards, CEOs, and staff partners?
- What are some of the most sacrosanct orthodox beliefs of association governing?
- How can association directors/officers/CEOs/governance staff think and act beyond orthodoxy?
