Board Bites - Summer 2023

In the spirit of progress and growth, the California Society of Association Executives (CalSAE) convened its Board of Directors in June to chart an ambitious course for the upcoming 2023/24 year.  Let's take a closer look at some of the highlights from the meeting—insights and initiatives that you, as a fellow association leader, may find not only interesting but also beneficial for the continued success of your own organization.

Overall, the Board expressed great satisfaction with our current strategic objectives and the remarkable progress made toward achieving them. Looking ahead, we are eager to enhance our approach by introducing a new layer if you will, that will further channel the energy and interconnectedness we have been experiencing. Our aim is to infuse this vibrant spirit into all aspects of our association, be it regional councils, committees, or everyday activities. This infectious new energy promises to invigorate and enrich our endeavors, bringing forth positive transformations in our collective journey toward success.
