I think innovation is rare, but definitely possible. It's natural for people to protect what they know instead of leaping into the unknown. Innovation always starts with good people curious about how we can make the world a better place. I address this in my article "Ten Skills for Innovators: The Capabilities Needed to Navigate What's Coming" https://lnkd.in/gHZF7xv7 What's on your list of innovation skills? #innovation #associations #associationmanagement #nonprofits ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership Association Forum Deirdre Reid, CAE

"We need to look at both the whole system and the role of individuals in making positive transformations. The three transformations involve shifting thinking from silos to systems, transforming relationships from toxic to transformative, and shifting actions from ego to eco. Small islands of coherence, rooted in deep humanity, have the potential to uplift the entire system. We are calling for, and are aspiring to help build, a regionally-rooted, globally united, action research community, to bring about positive transformations towards human and planetary flourishing."

I help associations create new revenue by developing new products. I find most associations are solution-focused. While this sounds intuitive and natural, it typically results in a "more stuff" approach to creating member value. The problem? People don't want more stuff! They want us to anticipate and help solve their problems. I wrote an article about the importance of understanding member problems: "Human-Centered Problem Solving. https://lnkd.in/gfhnTyR5 It’s hard to create great events, produce solid content, or build best-in-practice learning, if we don’t know our members fully. Investing in, and getting good at, understanding them will help us create the right experiences to meet their needs. #associations #assnchat #associationmanagement #nonprofits ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership Association Forum Michigan Society of Association Executives Ohio Society of Association Professionals

Last week I spent 4 days with other Catholic Founders, CEOs, and non-profit leaders at the SENT Ventures Summit in Forth Worth, TX with some amazing folks like Jeff Schiefelbein, Kevin Fitzpatrick, and Alex at Hallow. Thank you to John Cannon for your visionary leadership to make this conference and organization come to life. The theme of the conference was “Build Like a Saint!” If you want your business or organization to last 500+ years, you may want to consider emulating the strategies of saintly builders like St. Benedict (1500 years), St. Francis (800+ years), or St. Dominic (800+ years).

Come Holy Spirit! 📸Here are the six key characteristics of Saint Founders:

In his latest piece for eJewishPhilanthropy, Leading Edge board member (non-voting) Barry Finestone discusses navigating philanthropy in our new "VUCA" normal — a world of volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. The pace of change has accelerated dramatically with the advent of new technologies, requiring philanthropic organizations to adapt quickly. Finestone proposes three key mindsets for effective crisis response: embracing "good enough" over perfection, implementing rapid decision-making systems, and fostering trust within the philanthropic community: https://lnkd.in/etbVwEWJ
