CEO Outlook:  Issues and Trends facing Associations & Non Profits

The great recession was particularly hard on the non-profit and association communities.  As donations and new members have become scarce, non-profits have had to get creative and focus on maintaining revenue and managing expenses in order to serve their members and the community.  As most signs point to an economic recovery, what’s on the minds of some leading CEOs who have navigated their organizations through these choppy economic waters?  Are conditions improving?  What challenges remain?  Did the recession lead to permanent changes in revenue and expense management strategies?  What is their outlook as we head into the second half of 2010 and beyond?  Don’t miss this great program and networking opportunity.
