Reminder! Tomorrow is an important webinar on association investment policies, and if you can't attend the live event, know that it is on demand for your convenience! Thank you, Ryan Frydenlund, CIMA®, CIPM, Dennis Gogarty and @Mark Murphy!

Such a lovely event, and we enjoyed gathering our CSAE community together to celebrate the holidays!!

Investment policies are critical tools in the financial management and responsibilities toolbox for all associations, and we're honored that Ryan and team chose us and ASA with whom to partner for this webinar. We strongly encourage association leaders to sign up - and, in addition to the live webinar, you can also access on demand to fit in your schedule.

The holidays are about connection, celebration, and community, so don’t miss out on this week’s CSAE Holiday Event! Register to attend this Thursday, December 7 from 4:00 - 7:00 at the Denver Marriott Westminster. Why attend? Build Meaningful Relationships and Collaborate with Others! Whether you’re meeting new faces or reconnecting with familiar colleagues, this is your chance to forge stronger bonds in a relaxed, festive atmosphere. Expand Your Network Effortlessly Sometimes the best connections happen outside the office, and we’ll have a special service project, plenty of food and drinks, a terrific Silent Auction – and most importantly, great people! Enjoy the Spirit of the Season This isn’t just another event—it’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in holiday cheer, enjoy amazing food and drinks, and soak in the joy of the season with people who share your passion for making an impact.

Stephen Shepard, CAE, you are so right! C-Level association professionals oftentimes focus so much on their team's PD, that they often go without - but it's critically important. That's why we at CSAE offer roundtables every month including just for the C-level suite. Join us. Experience CSAE's collaboration among thought leaders! https://lnkd.in/dCtsE9Uf
