I was in Orlando last weekend holding the annual general meeting for the non-profit charity that I run; Cigar PEG, Inc. I went into the weekend with quite a bit of anticipation because of some relationship challenges we had been having with the National Speakers Association; at whose annual convention the charity holds a fund raising cigar party & celebrity auction. I really wasn’t sure if my staff (all volunteer) and supporters were still with me—pleasantly enough, by the end of the weekend it became very clear to me that most are on board. I’m now looking forward to a fabulous party this summer.

Member ROI for Associations & Societies
Wow, in less than a month this Linkedin group that I started on MLK Day has passed the 200 member mark. The quick member increase demonstrates to me that there is a huge desire among the professional staff at trade associations and professional societies to do the best job possible of creating and delivering member value—the challenge for these organizations is still, how to determine the yearly sustainable real dollar value/ROI of membership?
The Relationship Glue group at Facebook now has over 500 members. I would really like to see this group grow quicker as I believe that everyone needs a little relationship reminder now and then—in both romance and in business. This is a topic that I continually find myself very passionate.
