SUMMARY:A Critical Point: Mental Health for Association CEOs
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nLeading an association can be deeply rewarding—yet as a chief staff executive\, the physical and emotional demands often come at great personal cost. Drawing on insights from a recent survey of nearly 150 CSEs\, this webinar uncovers stark realities: 85% report negative impacts on their health\, 60% struggle with sleep\, and nearly one in five have experienced workplace-related mental health challenges. This practical session blends data with real-world strategies for building healthier work habits\, establishing boundaries\, nurturing board awareness\, and reshaping governance culture—empowering association CEOs and CSEs to lead sustainably while modeling well-being for their entire organization. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nInterpret the data — Describe the prevalence and impact of stress\, burnout\, sleep issues\, and physical strain among C-suite executives. \nSet and maintain healthy boundaries — Apply strategies to protect work–life integration\, even within demanding board and stakeholder environments. \nEngage boards and governance — Advocate effectively for supportive governance structures and policies that embed executive well-being. \nNormalize well-being conversations — Use language and forums to destigmatize mental health in the executive suite. \nImplement practical habits and systems — Identify at least three individual and organizational tactics—from peer networks\, sabbaticals\, to sleep hygiene—that reinforce sustainable leadership. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!

SUMMARY:The End of Expertise and How Associations Must Adapt
DESCRIPTION:COURSE DESCRIPTION: \nAmericans have grown increasingly hostile toward experts. We would rather take medical advice from a friend on Facebook than our doctor or the head of the CDC. Newspaper editorials and election endorsements no longer carry the same weight with the public. Science has become politicized and facts are debated. \nAssociations have long been trusted organizations for knowledge\, research\, and yes\, political advocacy. How are associations faring in this increasingly hostile environment? \nJoin us for a lively discussion about the end of expertise. Our guests will discuss: \n\n– How industries are being disrupted by the public’s lack of trust in our institutions\n– How associations are being affected by this same trends\n– How associations are modifying their services to maintain their credibility and retain members’ trust\n– What organizations are doing to keep their organizations safe spaces for facts\, open discussion\, and expertise.\n\n  \nLEARNING OBJECTIVES: \n\nUnderstand how cultural attitudes towards experts affect associations\nLearn ways to maintain credibility among members and the public\nLearn how associations are adapting in this environment\n\nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!
