On May 3, Senior Consultant Debbie Trueblood will lead the session, “The CEO’s Role in the Contemporary Landscape of Association Leadership,” at the ASAE CEO Issues Forum.

The association CEO’s role has become increasingly complex in today’s ever-changing political, economic, business, and social landscape. What are the critical issues facing them today and how should they navigate their organizations forward?

Using the World Café model to address trends and critical issues for association CEOs around people, culture, financial performance, innovation, and excellence,  Debbie will lead attendees in identifying new ideas for solutions sourced from their peers. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn and share with each other on important topics including

• Financial uncertainty in the external environment and what it means for associations
• Chat GPT and what it means for privacy, staffing, members, etc.
• Leader fatigue, CEO burnout, and anxiety in the board room
• Association workforce issues from staffing shortages and turnover, to rebuilding culture
• Succession planning for staff roles, continuity planning, and crisis planning
• The opportunity for associations to change the world through social impact, ESG, and DEI.
