The purpose of the Return on Learning mobile application (#ROLapp) is to quantify the value of organization meetings and events, and to then convert these outcomes into year-round membership lifecycle benefits.
More specifically, macro-level goals include:
Put an end to the “Firefighter Syndrome,” a destructive cycle that impedes strategic, innovative and collaborative thinking and erodes morale, productivity and business outcomes.
Develop enduring mobile technology and best practices association staff can rely on to more deliberately launch and sunset products, services and programs.
Promote member engagement and success via a strategy of mass customization and supported goal setting.
Leverage real-time data to aid industry partners in creating and effectively marketing valued product lines.
For associations, micro-level objectives include:
Crowdsource high-demand industry subjects worthy of resource deployment.
Illuminate professional goals and objectives critical to association members.
Connect association members with personalized resources to support goal attainment.
Establish a robust resource forum curated by an engaged community of members.
Evaluate the continued effectiveness of the association’s resource pool.
Increase efficiencies baked into the organization’s process and procedure.
Generate measurable “Return on Learning” (ROL) data for signature programs.
9:46-9:48 a.m.
