It can be difficult to step away from operational responsibilities to take a fresh look at your association. Yet, to remain relevant and financially secure, many association executives must re-evaluate their business plans, revenue models, and value delivery, developing fresh strategic plans.

Before you start such a process internally or with your board, ESAE invites you to attend the first workshop where you and your top staff can learn valuable strategic modeling and planning concepts and begin to apply them right away through hands-on team exercises. During this 1-day workshop, Gain additional peer insights during group sharing and return to your organization with tangible insights you can use to conduct a full analysis with your staff and board leaders. You'll receive strategic assessment worksheets, business model creation templates, and a method to enhance the value creation and capture the potential of your association.

Key Insights will include:

· Basics of strategic self-assessment

· Identifying your strengths and weaknesses (value mapping exercise)

· Understanding opportunities and challenges

· Describing your target audience and segments

· Defining your value creation and value capturing factors

· Building the business model best for your situation and future goals

· Thinking scenarios to outline the financial plan required to sustain and grow your model

Hone your evaluation and planning process in a safe space with understanding peers, better preparing you to engage your full board and staff. Even if you usually hire a third-party facilitator to guide your strategic planning process, this workshop will help you crystalize the questions you need to ask and the scope of what you want to cover.

Bring your core team for greater take-away value. When a single leader returns from a workshop, it is harder to maintain momentum and gain staff buy-in. That's why ESAE has built this event for associations teams to experience together. Enjoy group discounts based on your ESAE membership tier, making it easier to include more team members.
