Learning!

One of the primary benefits our association clients offer is professional development. We like to practice what we preach and make sure our staff stays current on the latest trends and hones the skills needed to provide the best service to our clients and their members. Here’s what we’ve been learning:

In October, Janet Boutilier, Account Manager, and Rosanne Burns, Account Coordinator, attended “The Power of Personal Communications: In Your Life and In Your Job,” hosted by AWC-DC. The session presented useful tools for overcoming stress and anxiety in order to have the courage to make critical decisions at work and at home.

Carol Montoya, PMR President, and Davin Hattaway, COO, attended DMAW’s Association Marketing Day, which featured sessions on increasing member engagement, member recruitment tactics, and ways to boost event attendance. In addition, there were presentations on social and mobile media as they relate to associations achieving their outreach goals, and a great idea exchange at the “A-HA” moment luncheon.
