ASA Virtual Learning Series

Refreshing Your Competitive Advantage: Tips, Tools and Techniques

Sponsor: Georgia Society of Association Executives

Date: July 29, 2010
Time: 1:00 P.M., EST
Cost: $55.00

What was once new and shiny becomes tattered and tarnished. Value that was cutting-edge and appealing no longer satisfies. Over time any asset deteriorates into a liability if not updated and enhanced. Savvy leaders intervene before their organization’s benefits are tired and in need of replacing ....or their individual skill set lags in effectively managing today’s challenges and opportunities.

This webinar will guide you through the tips, tools, and techniques to refresh your competitive advantage … as an organization serving your members, customers, or stakeholders … and as a professional trying to stay at the top of your field. You will experience a simple framework you can easily apply to any program, service, or relationship that needs a refresher to deliver more value. We will discuss the timely tactics you need to give timeless benefits a bit more life in a changing environment and a few simple strategies for building an organization culture capable of doing so. Finally, we will consider a few of the individual habits we need to adopt to keep our professional competitive advantage strong, regardless of our functional area of responsibility.

A brief pre-reading will help prepare you for the online conversation and the webinar will feature ample opportunity for specific questions. Start your learning now with an article on this same topic that CalSAE published earlier this year: http://www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/naylor/CSES0110/#/16

Membership News

Health Care Reform is the big issue right now. Even though bills passed the House and Senate, it will still be an issue in the election. It is also on the agenda of the Interim Committee on Health Care for the Nevada Legislature. I was in Washington D.C. when the House passed the Senate bill and the Senate was working on the Reconciliation bill. I was in D.C. for the ASAE day on the hill. I met with staff at all three Congressional offices and both Senate offices. I also met with Dina Titus to discuss the issue and reported back to ASAE. This month the Nevada Health Committee included items on their agenda in response to the passage of the National Legislation.
