During ASAE11 in August, I had the honor of participating in one of the two Ignite sessions. Preparing for Ignite was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. That said, I highly encourage everyone to do it at least once. It’s amazing how creative you can be when you’re given 5 minutes and 20 slides that auto advance every 15 seconds to make your point.
IMHO, the Ignite sessions were among the best at ASAE. Each speaker brought a passion to their topic that’s rarely seen during a presentation. As someone in the audience pointed out, you rarely heard “umm” or “ah” as we spoke. We all put a lot of time and effort into our presentations and it showed. When you get a free moment, please check them out. In the meantime, here’s my presentation on lessons on association management from the artist currently known as Prince.

Stef, just watched the video. Great presentation shared it with my colleagues here at ITE. Was wondering if you would be up for doing a session together at the 2012 GR Symposium?
Thanks Aliyah! Glad you enjoyed it. Would love to talk about doing a session for GR Symposium. The deadline is Dec. 9 so we have some time. I’ll email you shortly.
