The Association Of The Future: The World is Changing and so is the Association Business
C. Wayne Mitchell
Take an entertaining look into the future of the association management business and the possible changes we face. What will our members want from us? How will an Association function in the future? Will technology replace Association CEOs and staff (some would say that they do today)? Will we be down to one giant Association serving a single organization?
