I bet that if you pull any association’s job posting for a leadership opening, you will find the word “innovation” at least half the time, either as a requirement of the type of person or a descriptor of where the organization is going. I also would bet that if you walk into most associations and ask their team the last time they innovated, they would have to think about it and wouldn’t be able to name more than one innovation in the past year. Let’s make a bet.

This may help explain the top five priorities they have identified for the next twelve months: Building board support and encouragement for innovation. Business model innovation.

Is your association innovative enough to survive in the roaring twenties? As you read, you might be asking: Why is innovation so important? The short answer is without an innovative approach it will be challenging to perform at the level the marketplace demands. The longer response is that innovation is about more than making new stuff. The easiest place to start building a more innovative team is by identifying the talent that already exists in your organization.
