I help associations optimize and innovate to achieve mission.With intensifying competition for our members’ time, energy…and (yes) wallets, we need to create a vision that people want to follow, and a nimble infrastructure so we can adapt with agility. Effective governance, resource management, and prioritized strategies are just some of the key elements that will help us run like a business… and keep the value flowing.MY PHILOSOPHY:♦ GOVERNANCE. Use “structured flexibility” to revise policies with intention, rather than on a whim.♦ STRATEGIC PLANNING. Be bold. If you can achieve it in one year, it’s not a big enough goal. ♦ PRIORITIZATION. Ensure new initiatives are well resourced and aligned with the strategic plan.♦ CHANGE MANAGEMENT. Communicate the WHY so people will be more accepting of the HOW.♦ NEXTGEN ENGAGEMENT. Provide guidance around funding and priorities, then let them lead! MY APPROACH:♦ Designing our members’ future around what they NEED, not only around what they *think* they want.♦ Focusing on getting the right people in the right seats, ideating around the right goals. ♦ Simplifying complex ideas and encouraging inclusive, transparent discussion.♦ Questioning what our legacy activities accomplish, then re-focusing on outcomes. ♦ Evaluating trends, trusting the data… then making our members’ lives better.MY LEADERSHIP STYLE:♦ I lead with integrity.♦ I ask “What if” a lot.♦ I care about people’s success.♦ I follow through on commitments.♦ I admire solutions…not problems.Let’s connect: jenniferbethbriggs-at-gmail.com
