Using Futures-thinking to Make Better Decisions Today

3 p.m. - 4:30 p.m. ET

Economic conditions, evolving generational expectations, and the transformative influence of emerging technologies like AI are impacting your ability to deliver meaningful programs and services. The landscape is further complicated by increasing turnover among members and sponsors, affecting your attendance and revenue streams. The question on everyone's mind: How can you, as dedicated volunteer leaders and staff, not only adapt but thrive in this ever-changing environment and navigate unforeseen events with confidence? By constantly scanning for weak signals and adopting a future-oriented mindset.

This session explores ways to cultivate a long-range perspective and lays the foundation for building the leadership skill of foresight. Delve into the principles of futures-thinking and understand how integrating these practices throughout your chapter can be a game-changer. Explore the practical steps to not just adapt to change, but to anticipate it, enabling you to lead your chapter with confidence into a future filled with opportunities.

A Four-part Framework for Building Value for Your Organization and Members

11 a.m. - 12 p.m. ET

Many times, associations continue programs without considering the components of each program: what is valuable to your audience; what can be sunset; what's working for your organization, what's not working for your organization? Rather than moving forward without consideration, there is a way to analyze what value levers should stay in your programming and which should not, no matter how much data you have to back it up. Discuss the four-part framework your association can walk through to confirm which value levers move your members, which do not, which are taking up too many organizational resources, and which are scalable so that you can efficiently deliver the right value at the right price.

Speaker:
Dr. Michael Tatonetti, CPP, CAE, Founder, Consultant and Speaker, Pricing for Associations

2024 CLLR Reimbursment Policy

  • Attendees who have been pre-approved by their chapter board will be reimbursed for hotel and travel (per the noted travel policy). All chapters can have up to five (5) approved attendees receive reimbursement. Reimbursement forms will be sent to the chapter executives upon completion of the conference for distribution to their approved attendees.
     
  • All approved attendees are responsible for a $500 USD reimbursement deductible. Session/event attendance does not impact deductible amount.
     
  • Airline tickets must be coach fare and nonrefundable with a 21-day advance purchase. Tickets purchased within a 21-day window will be reimbursed at the average 21-day fare for that route. Attendees should utilize alternative local airports (IAD, DCA or BWI) if by doing so the airfare savings is $300 or more. If a flight is greater than 1,000 miles, an attendee should use connections if the savings from doing so is $300 or greater. NAIOP will not reimburse for travel insurance, seat or class upgrades, airfare “add-ons,” airport parking fees or transportation to/from airports. NAIOP will reimburse for one checked bag per attendee.
     
  • Attendees driving to the conference will be reimbursed mileage at the published IRS reimbursement rate and all related tolls. Reimbursement will not be given for parking expenses.
     
  • Chapter Executives are approved for three hotel nights at the contracted conference hotel room rate (including taxes). Other chapter leaders/participants are approved for two nights at the contracted conference hotel room rate (including taxes).

Capitol Hill Day

We encourage every chapter to take advantage of the opportunity to meet with your respective representatives and senators to voice NAIOP’s legislative concerns on issues important to the industry and establish relationships with new members of congress.

NAIOP will provide materials and education on the issues most pressing to our association and industry during CL&LR – but first you need to schedule your appointments.
