Setting Boundaries Isn't Easy Jan 07, 2019

Show notes

When I reflected on 2018 and my biggest regrets over the year, thinking about the times I had my most negative experiences, it almost always had to do with not setting appropriate boundaries. These examples could usually be summed up with the saying, "no good deed goes unpunished."

How do you know when to say, "sorry, I can't"?

Rapid Prototyping and Event Design Dec 30, 2018

Show notes

Sometimes I do interviews that don't have a live audience and I try to figure out when and where to add them to what I'm already doing with the Association Chat podcast.

When I had a chance to catch up with my good friend, event designer Tahira Endean, it was as she was wrapping up a world tour of experiences, including attending The College of Extraordinary Experiences in Poland.

We talked about all kinds of things, but the theme of our conversation, the through line, was designing experience.

Here is a little piece of that discussion. I'll be sharing more from that interview (and others from 2018 on the same topic) in the coming days.

As we went into this part of our conversation, Tahira had just started talking about the importance of rapid prototyping.

For more on this topic, watch the Amplified Growth blog in the coming days.

Why is Foresight the Future of Governing? Nov 23, 2018

Show notes

Why is Foresight the Future of Governing?

For associations, the future of governing must be different than its past, and now is the moment to begin creating it. Association boards, chief staff executives and other governing contributors have a unique opportunity to work together and design a more generative integration of stewardship, governing and foresight that can strengthen board performance as well as prepare their associations, stakeholders and broader industry and professional systems to thrive in a world experiencing transformation.

In this special Association Chat, KiKi interviews Jeff De Cagna, executive advisor for Foresight First LLC and author of the new eBook, Foresight is The Future of Governing: Building Thrivable Boards, Stakeholders and Systems for the 21st Century.

(The eBook is available as a free download at http://futureofgoverningbook.com.)

Among the questions KiKi and Jeff will discuss:

Why is board attention the most important and finite resource every association must manage with care?
How can boards and chief staff executives think in a new way about what it means to govern?
What can associations do today to begin creating a different future of governing?
