The weekly list of free educational events and resources for the association community… Hurricane Helene. Less than 1% of households in the hardest-hit mountain counties of North Carolina are protected by the National Flood Insurance Program. People have lost their homes, perhaps their businesses or jobs, and all their worldly goods. I can’t even fathom the loss of lives—we haven’t yet heard the worst of it.

There are (at least) two ways of thinking about power in interpersonal relationships: Power Over and Power With (sometimes recast as “Power To”). What’s the difference? Power OVER is about scarcity, rules, procedures, compliance, competition, rewards and threats, hoarding information, assigning blame, fear and skepticism, exclusion, silos, and control.

Marketing researchers have found that it takes an average of eight touchpoints for a sales prospect to consider a purchase. This principle holds true in both the for- and nonprofit sectors, meaning your organization needs to reach your supporters where they are over and over again to inspire support. Contacting supporters across multiple channels is called multi-channel marketing, and it’s often the key to acquiring new donors.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Listen to this article I’m always on the lookout for ways to make life easier for myself and my clients.

Sometimes it’s for altruistic reasons, like improving the well-being of the organization. Sometimes it’s for personal ones, like learning a new skill that will improve their job prospects internally or externally.

I’m lucky, in the sense that the leaders I work with are obviously very actively focused on culture (which is why they hire me as a consultant). But I don’t think that’s the norm. The majority of leaders do seem to think culture is important—they’re talking about it all the time—but I don’t see them taking a lot of action on it.
