Marketing is about making the best decisions you can with the information you have in hand. This is why marketing teams have to be comfortable, “building the plane while flying it.” Organizations change and grow, and because of this, marketers have to be ready to adapt and iterate. The best plans allow for and welcome the unexpected.Robb Lee, CMO for ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership, talks through strategies for involving marketing in larger organizational decision making. He said, “That's where the advantage of marketing can come in. We know all the data… And we can apply this to a business decision… This is a pathway into those upstream conversations, whether you're invited or not.”Bio:As a CMO, Robb solves one primary mystery for association CEOs — how to create revenue that keeps on giving.Capturing market share is about one ‘simply complex' idea: creating and sustaining brand loyalty.

What would veteran workforce training leader Jane Oates do to improve the hiring system if she had a magic wand? “I would take away all of the buts, as in ‘I would hire you, but you don't have experience, but you have a disability, but you're too old.'” It will not only help achieve equal access to employment, she tells Futuro Health CEO Van Ton-Quinlivan, but right now employers could really use a bigger talent pool. “We cannot be the country we are meant to be with a 61% labor market participation rate.” After many years in government service, capped with being Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training in the Obama administration, she's currently leading WorkingNation, a non-profit focused on educating the public and policymakers about achievable solutions to prepare workers for the future. Among its current initiatives are boosting the employment prospects of veterans, the disabled and single mothers. Partnerships are key to this work, and she and Van will be appearing on a panel together on August 22, 2022 at ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership conference in Nashville to underscore the role associations can play in bringing employers and workforce development stakeholders together. This episode of WorkforceRx is full of interesting ideas and angles to consider for those concerned about closing the troubling gap between job openings and available workers.

Today's guest is Samantha Whitehorne, senior director, and editor-in-chief, of Associations Now at ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership. Sam leads content development and management of ASAE's Associations Now media channel. Throughout her 17 years at ASAE, Sam has managed both print and digital channels and developed content that positions Associations Now as the definitive source of news and thought leadership for association professionals. Since Associations Now initially launched in 2005, it has won more than 60 awards from FOLIO, Association Media & Publishing, Association Trends, and others. Prior to joining ASAE, Samantha worked at Prevention magazine. She earned an M.A. from Syracuse University's Newhouse School of Public Communications and a B.A. from American University.  Topics covered: Sam's evolving role at ASAE over 17 years. The evolution of Associations Now, which was a print magazine. Now, it's a digital-first media channel.  How they use an artificial intelligence-driven platform for member e-newsletters.  How Associations Now staff and their outside partner develop content each day.  Around 2020–but pre-pandemic—digital revenue overtook print revenue for the first time. How they saw that both advertisers and members were becoming more interested in the digital content.  Associations Now has never said they're getting rid of print entirely; they create special publications in print.  When they eliminated the print magazine, ASAE wanted to give members something new. So, they relaunched AssociationsNow.com and redesigned their e-newsletters at the same time.  Associations Now created new Deep Dive feature packages online on specific topics.  Examples of digital and sponsored content products that Associations Now now sells.  Advice for when you reduce or eliminate print publications.  Being transparent and acknowledging the grief some staff may have over eliminating print. The exciting opportunities of multimedia and video in association content.   Resources: Samantha on LinkedIn Samantha on Twitter AssociationsNow.com Associations Now Deep Dive packages Email your Association Station topic and guest recommendations to melanie@meledits.com.

In addition to an undergraduate degree from St. Mary's College, Mark holds Executive Certificates in Nonprofit Leadership and Management and, Transformational Nonprofit Leadership, from the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame. About the interview in Mark's words: One of my favorite reminders that I have repeatedly shared with entrepreneurs over the years is to remember to spend time working ON your business and not just IN your business. Being a small business owner puts you square in the crosshairs of finding yourself doing everything on any given day in order to make your business run successfully. So much so, that it has the ability to become all-consuming – either out of necessity to survive or just plain unplanned success. In both cases, seeing the forest for the trees often takes a back seat to sustaining your business and the chances for long-term success can be compromised. So how do you know when it's time to take a step back? What are five (5) warning signs that you may be working too much IN your business and not enough ON your business? 1. You aren't questioning enough anymore. You are just in a “move from project to project” mode and it's all about just getting the work done and no time for anything else. 2. You aren't listening enough anymore. You stop relying on those who are working with you or for you for insights and ideas and you think you need to have all of the answers to every problem that surfaces. 3. You think you have to control everything including the outcomes. You keep telling yourself that if you just do this and just do that you will get the desired results without recognizing which variables are in your control and which are not in your control. 4. You either lose the ability to admit you were wrong, or become so attached to your honest but naive loyalty to your ideas, or your strong sense of perseverance won't stop and becomes unrealistic. In either situation, the result is ultimately the same outcome. You lose sight of the big picture, and you escalate your commitment to following a path that is leading you in circles instead of moving you forward. 5. You have used the phrase more than once in the past two weeks – “I just don't have the time to do anything else!” Once you begin to rationalize NOT taking the time is a clear sign that you have started down a path of potential misfires and bad decisions. If you find that you have experienced one or more of these warning signs recently, do yourself and your business a favor and STOP. Take a half-day for yourself and get out of your own way and go to spend time away from your office and business and think about where you want your business to be in 3 months, 6 months a year. Dust off that business plan and see how close you are to the plan with your current state of affairs. Remember, Albert Einstein, said it best – “Insanity is best defined as doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Learn more about your ad choices.

More than 10 million Americans work for nonprofits today. Even the Great Recession couldn’t stop growth in this sector. According to the federal government, the number of nonprofit jobs increased by 18% between 2000 and 2010. And that trend shows no sign of slowing down in the near future. And while the demand for skilled nonprofit workers is huge, it’s often be difficult for established professionals to transition into this sector. It can be a challenge to frame skills developed in the profit world in a way that resonates with nonprofits. Plus, there’s a huge amount of diversity within the nonprofit space. This week on Find Your Dream Job, Mac talks with Marcia Ballinger, an executive recruiter for nonprofit organizations and co-author of The 20-Minute Networking Meeting. Marcia shares her tips for how professionals in the private sector can make the jump into a nonprofit career. She believes it’s all about fit; you need to find the type of nonprofit--and a role within that nonprofit--that aligns with your skills, passions, and professional narrative. In this 33-minute episode you will learn: Why so many people want a nonprofit career The multiple paths into the nonprofit sector How to find the best “nonprofit fit” for your professional background Why you need to get specific and focussed in your nonprofit job search How to manage salary and benefit expectations when you move into the nonprofit space The role of passion and values in a nonprofit career This week’s guest: Marcia Ballinger, Ph.D. (@marciaballinger | LinkedIn)Co-founder and Principal at Ballinger | Leafblad, Inc.Co-author, The 20-Minute Networking MeetingMinneapolis, Minn. Listener question of the week:  I’m currently hunting for a job in the nonprofit space.
