Endorsements

Steve Smith worked with us to re-build our board of directors in 2008. Board members came to understand "best practice" and developed job descriptions that are still informing our work. Steve helped us to pull together stakeholders and identify new community resources. We were surprised to realize the support available right in our own community! Board members felt comfortable with Steve right from the start, he took time to understand our organization and made sure that all of our work was a good fit for us. Steve tailored his work to our needs and the board took full ownership of the results

Leading In Stressful Times

Strong, effective leadership will drive that success, particularly in competitive, stressful times like these.

5.    Map priorities: know where you’re headed and get there on time.
6.    Share the stage: mentor others to show their stuff.
7.    Commit to continuous improvement: how will we make this better?
8.    Maximize communications with  free social media tools readily available.
9.    In association work, it’s all about care and feeding of relationships.
