How Associations Can Embrace Being Human [and Be Less Sterile]
Description
There was a time not too long ago when associations often felt more like sterile governing bodies than they did like a warm, welcoming environment. In today’s discussion on the 6 Degrees of Association podcast, we sit down with Vicki R. Deal-Williams, MA, CCC-SLP, CAE, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association (ASHA), to discuss how associations can continue to serve people while acting more like, well, people! Vicki is a venerable association leader and a strong advocate not only for the entire community of speech-language-hearing professionals throughout her career but also cares deeply for the patients these professionals serve. Does your association have an annual meeting or marquee event? Tune in to this episode and find out from Vicki how these experiences can be less “cliquey” and more personalized and warm.
