Nonprofit Networking in the New Normal

Remember that connecting is universal. Connecting is a human necessity even in a time of pandemic. It spans industries, age groups, levels of career, and its need is even greater in a post-COVID world especially with in-person meetings on hold. So what are associations to do to serve their members and deliver the expected networking value? Networking is no longer a reception at the hotel bar during convention. But let's talk about more than just online communities. Consider member-driven networking engagement beyond just virtual happy hours, alternatives like mentoring programs, reverse mentoring programs, leadership development programs. Let’s discuss the changing needs of members as it relates to networking and maybe this is also a technology conversation. But we can’t ignore online community platforms.

How do you put the human connection first in digital/virtual networking?Support the Show.
