More on Stephen Melanson”s Keynote:

Verbal Branding

Unique in the marketplace, Verbal Branding is both a new, spoken application for marketplace differentiation and a redefined foundation for brand development. It creates competitive advantage through multiple dimensions of simultaneous business improvement.

Those dimensions include sales, internal culture, and brand density.

In essence, Verbal Branding is a new basis for thinking and speaking, allowing any organization to marginalize the competition and apply their brand in a practical, moment-by-moment way.

More on Lisa Morrissey”s Presentation:

Raving fans of your organization make it possible for you to effectively and successfully:

  1. spread the word about your important organization, cause, event or campaign,
  2. engage and keep the right donors, sponsors, volunteers and supporters, and
  3. execute successful fundraising initiatives.
Join Lisa Morrissey, President of LIDO Consulting Group, for an engaging and informative presentation that will leave you with practical and effective strategies for developing and growing your organization”s raving fan base who will help you to raise more money; spread your organization”s good word, and increase the number and level of your supporters.

Does this sound like your organization?

  • The board is comprised of too many friends of the executive director.
  • You struggle with identifying prospective board members.
  • The complement of directors’ skills and talents don’t meet the needs of the organization.
  • The complement of board members is not representative of your constituents.
  • New directors don’t understand their roles and responsibilities?

If you can identify with any or all of the above statements then join Susan C. Hammond and
Mark C. Rogers, Esq. as they discuss best practices in appointing and orienting new board members.
Learn tips and techniques you can use immediately. Their comments will touch on:

  • Where to look for prospective board members.
  • How to determine what skills & talents you need.
  • How to interview & engage prospective board members.
