We believe in resiliency, a can-do spirit, and the power of
community. Our organization was founded in 1919 by women who
refused to be victims of inequity.
Similar threats are present today, and we exist to face those challenges together - through the power of continual career relevance, strong network connections, and prioritizing our critical health issues.
Through the roadmaps left by the generations before us and the plethora of modern-day business knowledge, the path before us has been paved and lit.
We must simply have the courage to take the next steps.
We must clarify what we believe.
1.
We must test the relevance of our focus areas: continual career relevance, strong network connections, and prioritizing critical health issues.
2.
We must amend our Bylaws and Policies & Procedures to expand the leadership team, streamline committees, and facilitate necessary communication and decision- making.
3.
We must continue assembling our virtual toolbox, allowing members to collaborate and connect without geographic limitations.
4.
We must use our branding to reflect our core value: the power of community - of connection.
5.
We must actively seek partnerships with like-minded organizations to better leverage our resources and build on their specialized knowledge in critical areas.
6.
We must increase our engagement in the online conversation, through our volunteer Online Marketing Team.
7.
For our new members, we must provide an onboarding experience that facilitates an understanding of our history, our beliefs, and how we translate them into action.
8.
We must also pay careful attention to our ongoing member experience, supporting local organizations and e-members.
9.
We must not forget the importance of face time. With a core value of connection, gathering together in person is a critical component of why we exist.
