Plan for Recovery - Association Strong!

After a devastating weather event neighbors emerge in shock, asking “are you okay?”
Recovery starts fast. You hear the chainsaws clearing driveways and streets. Piles of
rubble begin to line sidewalks. A weather event comes on fast and ends abruptly.
The coronavirus pandemic and severe economic disruptions present new challenges for
associations. Damages and duration are unknowns. Associations are concerned about
membership, meetings and their own sustainability.
Associations, chambers and the nonprofit sector are well-positioned to lead recovery for
their communities. They have been resilient during wars, weather events, economic
downturns and prior pandemics.
“Associations were made for times such as these,” said a Ukrainian executive director
facing conditions like the USA.
Leadership, Governance and Pandemic Recovery

Serving on a board of directors or
committee is a rewarding experience.
The greatness of America is enhanced
by the volunteers who govern the more
than 1.5 million nonprofit organizations.
Board service and trusteeship
requires significant responsibility and
accountability. The membership,
stakeholders, media, and the
government scrutinize actions. The
board works as a team in collaboration
with the professional staff. Directors
should be innovative and strategic.
Seldom does an organization need
directors who micromanage.
The 2020 Leadership,
Governance and
Pandemic Recovery
manual offers guidance
and hope for economic
rebound. Associations
are resilient and should
use the opportunity
to become an
indispensable partner
and trusted resource.
Regarding this photo, Failure is Not
an Option is my frequent advice. It
was 50 years ago, in 1970, that Apollo
13 was set to deliver three men to
the moon. Of course, Mission Control
wanted to be 100 percent successful.
During the flight they heard the famous
words, “Houston we have a problem.”
The mission did not make it to the moon
but returned to Earth safely.
During your leadership experience,
remember that failure is not an option.
Approach your task prepared and
committed to advance the organization’s
mission.
