An effective board of directors needs a high quality staff arm to have the greatest impact. ASMC will run the business of your association. ASMC works with boards and committees to insure the effective leadership and management of their association. ASMC is able to tailor its role in both staff-driven and volunteer driven environments. ASMC's goal is your goal; see that the association successfully fulfills its mission. Representative areas include:

Board of Directors:

Strategic cooperation and leadership with the board of directors to continually shape the growth and direction of the association through well developed insight and deliberate planning.

Detailed board meeting packets include strategic plan development and relevant association activity reports.

Coordinate board of directors meetings, either off-site, via conference call, or other technology as needed.

Develop comprehensive minutes, action item lists and appropriate follow up documents.

Assist with writing and distribution of any or all board correspondence as needed.

Manage and maintain the association by-laws as per direction of the Board.

Assist board through the recruitment, growth and development, nomination and election processes.

Committees/Chapters:

ASMC knows that effective and supported committees or chapters will do a tremendous amount toward the goals of an association. ASMC will support the activities of committees or local chapters, to include administrative services, organizing and attending meetings, forwarding relevant association information to officers as needed, maintain activity calendars and events, and help develop agendas and action plans for chapter goals and objectives.

Through strategic development at the committee or chapter level, ASMC will ensure that all membership is working in conjunction with and toward the goals of the overall organization.

ASMC staff and partner organizations have extensive experience in helping associations develop. Some associations know what they are and where they are going. Others have experienced turn over, industry shifts, shifting membership or in some other way are no longer on the path of years past.

Where is the association now? Where do its members want it to go? How can the association have a true impact? ASMC can help.

From in depth strategic planning sessions, to focus groups that evaluate present or future programs, member or chapter surveys, to Board retreats, ASMC will support your organization in its movement forward.
