Why Members Of Other Associations Need Our Remarkable Team… The #association space is crowded. There are many associations a business leader can choose from when they are looking for ways to enhance the performance of their business. When you look closely, however, each association tends to have a different focus. For example some associations place a priority on business #advocacy. Others focus on member networking events. And many put community engagement on the top of their list. This mosaic of attention creates opportunities for associations to partner with one another for the benefit of their individual members. Recently Board members Ian Tait and Roy Osing of The Business Association Inspired In North Delta, Canada participated in a meeting with Ladner Business Association members. Their pitch: Ladner Members should also join The Business Association Team and get tools and services they don’t get with their current membership. It’s all about serving the needs of members, and if you must suggest to your members that they should join another association because it will benefit their business, then DO IT!

The Black Leadership PAC supports initiatives that underscore the value of diverse leadership in the workforce as a pathway to strengthening the social economy. Diverse leadership enables organizations to better address complex social challenges and enrich community engagement, promoting inclusivity and adaptability across sectors. When champions of community-driven solutions invest in diverse talent, they help build a foundation for equitable growth within the social economy. A commitment to nurturing diverse leaders is a commitment to fostering a resilient and inclusive society prepared to meet evolving needs. By supporting diverse leadership, we contribute to a sustainable framework for progress that benefits all.

BMP's co-executive directors, Frances Kunreuther and Sean Thomas-Breitfeld, explore why aspiration to lead is declining.
