Race for Relevance: 5 Radical Changes For Associations Tenth Anniversary Edition
Ten years after calling for radical change in their landmark bestseller Race for Relevance, authors Harrison Coerver and Mary Byers are back with this expanded 10th anniversary edition—a guidebook for association leaders navigating a post-pandemic world.
The competitive and other business pressures challenging associations to deliver greater value a decade ago have only intensified. Some associations heeded the call for change, and some of their stories are shared in this new edition. Other associations have continued to operate the same way they have for years—and likely are reeling.
An important overlay for this new edition is the pandemic, which the authors underscore as not only a disruptor but an accelerant and tailwind for needed changes to governance, portfolio management, and technology.
Race for Relevance provides a bold, no-nonsense look at not only the challenges facing associations but the actions they can undertake to thrive.
