Introducing a new three-part national cohort series by The Alliance Learning Collective: 
Three Part Series (Sept 29th, Oct 13th, Oct 27th)
Throughout three highly interactive discussions, we will discuss, explore, and experiment with dozens of methods for gently nudging members through the three stages of engagement. We will look at every nook and cranny of member engagement, including (but not limited to) messaging, online communities, onboarding, networking, learning, conferences, chapters, benefits, volunteerism, and value. We will attempt to stand in the shoes (hopefully new shoes) of our new members, long-time members, and mid-career members. Some discussions are likely to center on high-tech strategies, while others will reveal simple, low-budget, no-tech options. 

Shop Talks are lightly facilitated Zoom conversations designed to virtually connect you with your peers to discuss the changing business environment. Each program has a unique zoom link. Register separately for each. Registration is complimentary and open to everyone.
