This move ensures we deliver the full Forum experience—more connections, deeper strategy, and greater access for association professionals across the country.

At Engaging Associations Forum 2025, we’re not spotlighting the usual suspects—we’re bringing in the changemakers redefining how associations work, lead, and grow.

💡 Mark R. Thompson is here to blow up the staffing status quo. If your team is burnt out and your strategy keeps stalling at the “good idea” phase, this session is your missing link. Mark introduces the 𝐹𝑟𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛𝑎𝑙 𝐶ℎ𝑖𝑒𝑓 𝑜𝑓 𝑆𝑡𝑎𝑓𝑓 𝑚𝑜𝑑𝑒𝑙—a leadership upgrade that gives associations access to senior-level strategy without the full-time hire. You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to build a right-sized, ROI-focused leadership structure that actually delivers on your board’s big vision.

From identifying operational gaps to designing scalable staffing models—this is where structure meets strategy.

And that’s just one of the power sessions at this year’s Forum.

Whether it’s redefining revenue, leading through chaos, or rebuilding culture—our speakers don’t just talk change. They are the change.

Ready to challenge the way things have always been done?
Let’s lead the shift—together.

𝐌𝐞𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐬. 𝐁𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐬𝐫𝐮𝐩𝐭𝐨𝐫.

At Engaging Associations Forum 2025, we don’t do safe. We bring the real, the relevant, and the ready-for-change leaders to the table.

⭐ Meredith Low is helping you chart the course through the storm—when the future feels murky and the waters are rough, she gives you a compass, not clichés. You’ll walk away with strategic frameworks to lead with clarity, even when the waves keep coming.

⭐ Shawn Cheng is reshaping how associations think about growth. If your revenue model still leans heavily on dues and events, it’s time to zoom out. Shawn brings global insight and sharp facilitation to help you unpack your current mix, spot overlooked opportunities, and map a modern, diversified revenue strategy. From certification programs to global expansion and going chapterless—he’ll challenge the status quo and leave you with real steps, not just big ideas.

These aren’t just smart sessions, they’re strategy in motion.

🔥 Real tools. Real relevance. Real association leaders.

Join us July 23–24 in Ottawa.
Let’s lead the shift—together.
