Thriving associations have engaged members - lots of them, but engagement doesn't happen by accident. Association leaders have many opportunities to influence member engagement by improving experiences at every stage of the member journey. Amanda invites all association leaders to become CEOs (Chief Experience Officers). Becoming this kind of CEO doesn't have to take a lot of time, money or require fancy technology. Strategies shared in this program can help you 1) Increase feelings of belonging; 2) Energize your organization; 3) Create community.
Amanda Lea Kaiser is a member engagement strategist and author of Elevating Engagement: Uncommon Strategies for Creating Thriving Member Communities. As a researcher, author, and co-creator of the Incubator Series and the New Member Engagement Study, she is at the forefront of exploring how member and attendee engagement is rapidly changing within professional communities.

Whether you want to grow your business, increase profits, or go automated, my team and I know how to get you there. I grew up on St. Croix in the U.S. Virgin Islands and got to travel the world.
