Growing Chapters That Attract Members: Turning Experience into Results
2026-07-21 14:00 - 15:00 (America/Detroit) | Virtual
What actually drives chapter growth today—and why do some chapters consistently attract new members while others struggle? The answer goes beyond recruitment tactics. Growth is shaped by the quality of the member experience and how visible that experience is to others.

In this session, we’ll explore how association staff can better support chapters in creating environments that members want to join—and stay part of. We’ll connect the dots between internal chapter culture, member engagement, and outward perception, showing how positive experiences inside the chapter naturally translate into stronger growth.

We’ll also introduce a simple set of metrics that can help you and your chapter leaders better understand how they’re doing—from engagement to participation trends—and how to use those insights to have more effective conversations and guide smarter decisions.

Walk away with practical strategies you can apply right away to help your chapters strengthen member experience, increase engagement, and support sustainable growth.

ACCE: Your Members Are Telling You Something. Are You Listening?
2026-06-16 14:00 - 15:00 (America/Detroit)
June 16Virtual

Most Chambers think they understand member engagement… They don’t. Because if you did, you could answer—without hesitation:

Who’s about to drop?

Who are our most engaged members?

Who’s ready to spend more?

What programs actually drive retention and revenue?

Instead, most Chambers are stuck reacting… pulling reports after the fact… and hoping renewal season goes their way. That ends here.

In this session, we’ll show how Chambers are shifting from reactive to proactive—using AI Agents, automation, and flexible reporting to see what’s happening before it’s too late and act on it in real time.

You’ll learn how to:

Instantly identify your most and least engaged members (without manual tracking)

Use AI to surface risks and opportunities your team would otherwise miss

Automate the right outreach at the right time—based on actual behavior

Build engagement scoring that reflects your Chamber, not a generic model

Turn your AMS from a system of record into a system that actually drives growth

We’ll walk through real examples—what works, what doesn’t, and what to do next.

The reality:

If you’re still relying on static reports and gut instinct, you’re already behind.

Bottom line:

This isn’t about adding more technology. It’s about finally using your data to make better decisions—and act on them.

Who Should Attend:

Chamber Presidents, Membership Directors, and operations leaders responsible for engagement, retention, and revenue growth.

Member Engagement Lab #3: How to Engage Members Even When You are Not Feeling It
2026-05-19 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Detroit)
Brain-fog, right?! Some days, you’ve got oodles of social energy. And other days, you are exhausted, overwhelmed, or just not feeling it, but your members are still there.

When your mental bandwidth is low, anti-engaging behaviors can sneak in without you even realizing it. Unfortunately, those small moments can quietly push members away.

Let’s talk about how to stay engaging even on the hardest days. You’ll walk away with simple ways to show up with intention keeping engagement strong even when your mood is ⛈️.

Beacon's May 2026 AMS Showcase
2026-05-14 10:00 - 16:00 (America/Detroit)
All-day virtual event where associations can watch structured, side-by-side demos of AMS platforms. We’re keeping it to 18 vendors, with three sessions running simultaneously starting at 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. ET.

Each vendor gets a 45-minute slot. The first 30 minutes is a scripted walkthrough — membership join and renew, event registration front and back-end, that — so attendees are comparing apples to apples. The last 15 minutes is for the vendors to show off whatever they want.

Member Engagement Lab #2: How to Engage Members When You are Super Duper Busy
2026-05-12 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Detroit)
Your to-do list is already overflowing with emails, member requests, and all the events, benefits, and services that need to get done. And now you are supposed to “increase engagement?” With what time?

Member engagement doesn’t always have to be time-consuming. It’s something you can add to what you are already doing.

In this fast-paced, collaborative session, we will share how to sprinkle a little magic into your everyday work. You will see how to turn regular administrative tasks into meaningful moments of connection.

Adapt these big ideas, brainstorm with your colleagues, and leave with practical ideas that don’t add one more thing to your plate.

How Executives Choose Their Next AMS
2026-05-01 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Detroit)
Most executives choose a new AMS maybe once a decade. Some have never done it at all. No wonder the process can feel overwhelming, slow, and—honestly—a little dated. This session cuts through all of that.

We’ll talk about what actually drives a smart AMS decision today. Not feature lists. Not 200line RFPs. Not marathon demos. We’re talking strategy, outcomes, and the realities leaders face when the stakes are high and the change is big.

You’ll hear what works. What doesn’t. And the “please don’t do this” moments we’ve seen in hundreds of AMS searches.

The RUG Revolution Leadership Experience
2026-04-08 09:00 - 15:30 (America/Detroit) | Society of Critical Care Medicine, Mount Prospect, Illinois, United States
Are you tired of stepping over the same leadership challenges — and not seeing real movement?

The RUG Revolution Leadership Experience is a facilitator-led, immersive leadership lab for association and nonprofit leaders who are ready to stop managing around problems and start moving them.

A “rug” is the persistent barrier everyone adapts to:

A workflow that frustrates people

A decision that keeps getting deferred

A role that creates friction

A system that drains time and trust

A limmiting belief

Rugs survive because they’re familiar.But they cost you momentum.

This is not a sit-and-listen seminar. It’s a structured, practical lab where you will work on your real challenge and leave with a plan in motion.

What You’ll Walk Away With

Using the H.E.A.R.T. Powered Leadership™ framework (Humanize, Empower, Ascend, Reimagine, Transform), you will:

Clearly define your RUG statement

Surface the real human and operational impact

Clarify ownership and the decision that’s been avoided

Build two viable solution paths

Create one focused 30-day test

Map a 30-60-90 plan

Secure an accountability partner

You won’t leave with notes.You’ll leave with action.

Who Should Attend

Association and nonprofit leaders who:

Are ready to address the issue everyone keeps stepping over

Want practical tools, not theory

Value clarity, courage, and forward momentum

Limited to 60 participants for depth and meaningful engagement.

Serious outcomes. Lively experience.

We don’t step over rugs.We move them.

Reserve your seat today.

The Belonging Blueprint: What Today’s Members Actually Want—Locally
2026-03-26 13:00 - 14:00 (America/Detroit)
You don’t need your chapters to run more events—you need them to design belonging. Let’s explore how HQ/component staff help chapters adopt small‑group formats that create real connection—mentoring circles, micro‑gatherings, challenge sprints, and pop‑ups. We’ll show examples to get components innovating and add metrics that matter (belonging, activation, event pull, agility, equity, interaction quality) so they can track depth, not just headcount. Leave with examples, KPI options and quick win plan. If your components are wrestling with shallow engagement, stressed volunteers, and fragmented value, here’s a blueprint to re‑energize local community fast.

Learning Objectives:

1) Diagnose shallow engagement using belonging and participation signals from current research. 2) Explore small‑group patterns (mentoring circle, micro‑gathering, sprint, pop‑up). 3) Identify KPIs (belonging, activation, event pull, agility, equity, interaction quality) and how to capture. 4) Learn a 30‑day quick‑win pilot you can try with a component (bonus, do before CEX and so we can explore more deeply).
