With 2021 winding down, what’s ahead for chapters? COVID will still be “a thing” and, for some, budgets will still be in flux. We can expect there will be challenges and new opportunities galore. So we put our collective heads together to think positively and proactively about 2022. We offered some tips based on 2021 and collaborated on how to prepare for next year. Participants shared lessons learned, ideas tried and solutions found.

- Share how your association can use the data and findings
View the workshop recording: https://youtu.be/Mh3uxdlf3vs
Members seek face-to-face opportunities to connect, learn, volunteer, and socialize with their peers more than ever. CRPs are looking for ways to activate that member engagement at chapters. Around the country, they’re asking:
- Are associations changing how they manage and relate to their chapters?
- What support and services should we give our chapters?

Billhighway: A Solution for Better Chapter Performance Billhighway
Do you ever wonder if there are ways you can help your chapters be more effective? Chapter leaders are typically not association management experts. They’re not financial whizzes, compliance professionals, database managers, technologists, or website administrators. The responsibilities of managing a chapter take many of them far outside their comfort zone and can limit their effectiveness in serving members.
The good news is you and your chapter leaders don’t have to put up with this frustrating situation. The solution is out there, but you might not know about it yet. Everyone’s familiar with AMS, LMS, event registration platforms, and other tools used for chapter management. But do you know that Billhighway unifies all that functionality into one solution that helps to significantly improve chapter performance, increase member retention, and grow revenue? Join us to learn more about how you can dramatically increase the performance of your chapters and why your chapter leaders and Executive Director will love you for it.
We traditionally focus on resources, tools, and insights that help you and your chapters without being a commercial for Billhighway. This webinar is different, so we want to be upfront about it. In times like these, associations need Billhighway more than ever. So we’re breaking with tradition and focusing this webinar on demonstrating how the Billhighway solution can help component-based associations solve the unique challenges of our current times.
Chapter Performance Reimagined: Taking Your Association's Growth to the Next ...Billhighway
Throughout COVID-19, we’ve seen a lot of associations wrestling with the impact of lower revenue and declining membership. But what if your components could help turn that around for you? In times like these, where many associations are not able to have large in-person conferences, chapters and affiliates can be used to deliver member-value locally in ways that National cannot. By empowering your components, associations can increase member engagement and retention, growing both revenue and membership. In this webinar, we touch on ways you can significantly mobilize your components to better serve members and create a win/win for your members, your chapters, and your association.

Adding Snap, Crackle & Pop to Chapter EventsBillhighway
One of the big mysteries these days is why chapter members aren't attending events. While it's easy to blame it on members being busy, this is usually not the reason members don’t attend events.

Tracking Chapter Effectiveness: Tips for Creating Powerful DashboardsBillhighway
How many of us struggle with getting chapter volunteers to submit reports? How many of us have a file folder full of individual spreadsheets or reports? Maybe you even have some great chapter data, but are you able to make this data meaningful for your chapters, your board or even your staff? When attempting to track chapter effectiveness, knowing what to measure is just one part of the equation. The other is knowing how to collect, store and share that data, in addition to recognizing and tracking the data trends.

In this webinar, you’ll hear stories from other associations on what methods they have used to leverage their data, and how they have helped chapters and staff make better decisions about what’s needed to serve member needs.
3 Ways to Tap Chapter Relevance in 2021Billhighway
We’re at the beginning of a new year, and opportunity abounds us. We know chapters are more relevant than ever.

We can harness that agility with the right support and permissions, so how do we tap chapters? Learn three lenses to view chapter relevance through and how to make a case to optimize chapters as part of your overall association success strategy in 2021.
Chapter Benchmarking Report: What the Data, Success Stories & Opinions Tell UsBillhighway
Chapter membership takes on a significant value in an increasingly online world. Members seek face-to-face opportunities to connect, learn, volunteer, and socialize with their peers, mentors, and clients. Once upon a time, chapters were taken for granted, but many association leaders now have questions like.
- How does our chapter program compare to those of other associations?
- What are the standard practices regarding chapter membership, programming, requirements, and metrics?
- What support and services should we be giving chapters? Are other associations making changes to chapters?
- How do we assess the performance and value of our chapters?
- Are chapters still relevant?
In our latest Chapter Benchmarking Report, we explore these questions through industry data that helps associations benchmark their chapter programs against others. Join us for a webinar that fuels the dialogue on what makes an effective chapter—and an effective chapter/association relationship. We’ll share stories on what methods other associations have used to leverage their data, and how they have helped chapters and staff make better decisions.
Driving Member Engagement by Showing #VolunteerLoveBillhighway

Given that 20-25% of staff labor in associations come from volunteer members, it’s a worthwhile effort to utilize recognition in creating a supportive environment. Let’s draw from research and our own community for a dynamic discussion on ways to spotlight association volunteers and celebrate volunteering in all aspects!

Chapter Chat: How A CRP Helped Turn Around A 15-Year Membership DeclineBillhighway
With more than 1,500 clubs and 185,000 members, a membership drop of 2% year over year for 15 consecutive years can really impact your bottom line, leaving you with a crisis on your hands. Rick Rangel, Director of Growth at the Northern California Golf Association (NCGA) had chapters that were drowning. NCGA was at a crossroads. They’d been doing the same thing over and over again with their clubs and expecting different results. Rick realized they weren’t giving their chapter leaders the tools they needed to be successful.
- Club officers found one-off tools on their own, and their data did not automatically flow up to HQ.
- Onboarding processes and value propositions differed from club to club.
- Chapter websites were a huge pain and branding issues were rampant.
- On average, club officers easily put in 40 hours every quarter, volunteering their time and energy, so burnout happened often.
Sound familiar? From off-brand chapter websites to AWOL officers, Rick shares his chapters-in-crisis experience. Tune in to find out what tools, tips, and tricks he used to prevent major mayhem. Under Rick’s helm, NCGA has been able to correct course, now seeing 6% membership growth year over year since 2016. Regardless of your components' structure, you’ll benefit from the CRP advice we share in this webinar.

Revenue Revamp: 5 Game-Changing Fixes Help Chapters Increase Non-Dues Revenue...Billhighway
As an association exec, you’d love for 2024 to be a year of strong non-dues revenue growth – for you and your chapters. If sponsors, exhibitors, and advertisers believe your chapters can positively impact their bottom lines, chapters will convert more customers with less effort.
But most chapters (and some associations) inadvertently turn off those buyers because of website navigation, collateral, and messaging that leaves prospects confused and unconvinced. How can we help our chapters?
This fun session will outline simple changes that will help chapters to attract and convert sponsors, exhibitors, and advertisers efficiently and effectively including:
- How to quickly create a compelling case to invest money with your association
- Which stats and stories provide the most effective social proof of your value
- What information buyers need at various stages of their buying journey
We're diving into simple, game-changing fixes to help your chapters skyrocket their non-dues revenue. Think attracting sponsors, exhibitors, and advertisers like a pro!
Communication lies at the heart of every successful association, driving growth, engagement, and impact in today’s fast-paced world. For chapters, communicating effectively is paramount to their strength and success. Are you ready to take your chapter communications to new heights?

6 Habits to Build in Your Components (& for CRPs!)Billhighway
As James Clear states, “You do not rise to the level of your goals. You fall to the level of your systems.” When systems become outdated and ineffective, chapters fall into bad habits that inhibit their growth and endanger their future.
Join us to learn how to coach and support your chapters as they develop better habits. We share strategies to make small, sustainable changes.

The 5 Most Important Metrics for Your ComponentsBillhighway
Are you ready to make your components more successful this year? Then, join us for this exclusive webinar to help your chapters build better habits and measure five essential metrics. We cover what you should monitor to stay ahead of the game.
11 Ways to Help Chapters Avoid (Or handle) a CrisisBillhighway
Sit back and enjoy this webinar where we decode crises we see (and feel) in chapters. We cover all kinds of troublesome scenarios, from chapter financial mismanagement, fraud, and cybersecurity attacks to AWOL or unprepared chapter officers and everything in between.
Your association’s approach to chapter crisis management and prevention depends entirely on your relationship with your components – in terms of both structure (subsidiary or independent) and your connection. While this webinar assumes chapters are subsidiaries, a situation that brings more risk to National and supposedly provides more control. Even if your components are independent, you (and your chapters) will benefit from this advice. Join us for some tips and best practices to help handle (or hopefully avoid) your next chapter crisis!
20 Things You Can Do For Your Chapters in 2023Billhighway

In case you didn’t hear, Mariner Management turned 20 in January! As a celebration of this accomplishment and in honor of Billhighway’s 23rd year of service to component-based organizations, we’ve gathered our favorite “Top 20” tips we’d love to share.
Join us to learn:
→ Our top 20 resources, tools, and tips for CRPs
→ How to support your chapters now so they can plan for the future
→ Bring your questions for an “Ask Me Anything” chat with Peggy Hoffman
This free webinar will provide ideas you can start implementing immediately.
Can You Hear Me? Effective Practices in Communicating with Chapter LeadersBillhighway
Good old-fashioned communication is one of the best ways to build successful relationships with your chapters. Communication is a two-way street, but not everyone communicates in the same way.
Have you ever been frustrated by the lack of transparency between you and your chapters? Or felt like your communication revolved around administrative asks instead of resources and advice? Maybe it’s time to Mari Kondo your chapter communications.
Peggy Hoffman from Mariner Management — with help from some super communicator CRPs —shares advice and examples on creating effective chapter communication practices.

Idea Swap: Helping Chapters Embrace ChangeBillhighway
We need chapter leaders to make changes. It could be huge like shifting structures, medium like embracing new volunteer models, support services, affiliate agreements, or easy like changing your schedule. Resistance to change is natural. Anytime you introduce a new process or technology, you have to think about change management from the very start. Unfortunately, we underestimate how our leader training can support us in leading that change. This idea swap will explore how we can use our current and future training opportunities to help chapters embrace change.

Beth Ziesenis: Author. Speaker. Nerd.
Since her first Motorola RAZR flip phone, Beth has made a verb out of the word “nerd.” She’s here to help you filter through thousands of apps, gadgets, widgets and doodads to find the perfect free and bargain technology tools for work and home. Although the only real trophy she ever won was for making perfect French fries at McDonald’s in high school, Beth Z has been featured on Best Speaker lists by several organizations that write best speaker lists. She has written a whole shelf of books on apps and has spoken to more than 100 thousand audience members just like you. And if you’re puzzling over why she goes by “Beth Z”… it’s because she only finds about three people a year who can pronounce her last name.

Idea Swap: Ways to Celebrate & Appreciate Our VolunteersBillhighway
Don’t let National Volunteer Week (#NVW) sneak up on you! National Volunteer Week is April 17th through April 23rd. So go ahead and mark your calendars now! It’s an opportunity to shine a light on the people who tirelessly serve our associations. Volunteers represent a large portion of our organizations and keep our chapters thriving, making them critical to our ability to meet member needs and move our missions. We’d be lost without them.
The question is, how do we authentically reward, recognize and support our chapter volunteers? To celebrate, we’ve compiled our favorite ways to show appreciation now or at any time of the year. In reality, we don’t need a month or week designated to thank our volunteers; instead, we should be showing our appreciation all year long. So join us for an idea swap with your CRP peers chocked full of ideas and inspiration to show your volunteers some love.
Hosted by Billhighway & Mariner Management.
Virtual Idea Swap: Coaching Chapter Leaders for SuccessBillhighway
What would we do without chapter volunteers? They’re our everything! Year after year, volunteers step up, take on chapter leadership roles, then step aside for the next set of leaders. So how do we ensure our volunteers have what they need to contribute? How can we inspire them?
In this chapter virtual idea swap—Coaching Chapter Leaders for Success—you'll be able to collaborate with your CRP peers on essential coaching skills aimed at attracting and motivating volunteer leaders.
Drive Chapter Behavior with Targeted BenchmarkingBillhighway
Benchmarking (count and compare) can serve many purposes, but the most important purpose is to define what’s most important! Everyone’s likely heard some variation on the business maxim, “you can’t manage what you don’t measure,” but the corollary consequence, “you tend to manage what’s being measured” is often overlooked. Bottom line, if we want our chapters to help us serve the members and move the mission, we need to benchmark those behaviors that help us achieve that end. In other words, let’s count the things that count…and, oh by the way, all the things that count can’t necessarily be counted!
Benchmarking also implies comparison, and here’s the other important purpose. When we measure and make comparisons on those metrics which are truly important, we can then identify our “bright spots” – the high achievers – and replicate those behaviors across the system. Win-win!!
We talk about what we’re benchmarking (or not) and why. While there’s no guarantee, experience suggests that “if you measure it, they will do it,” so let’s be sure we measure the right stuff.
Chapter Events: Deciding on In-Person, Hybrid, or VirtualBillhighway
What’s the outlook for in-person chapter events in 2021 and how do we help chapter leaders decide whether to host an in-person, hybrid, or virtual event?
For nearly a year, CRPs and chapter leaders have focused on virtual. As the vaccine rolls out across the country, the focus is shifting to when chapters can resume in-person meetings (and indeed some already have). But should chapters plan on in-person meetings this year? Can they provide a safe experience? Will members be ready? What about hybrid—the word on everyone’s mind? Is that a viable possibility?
Like you, we had more questions than answers so we tapped one of the brightest minds we know on association and chapter events. Join us as we provide expert advice on how to help chapters make the right event decisions.
Hosted by Billhighway and Mariner Management.
Pivoting Your Chapter Leadership Conference to VirtualBillhighway
As the world begins to open back up in the coming months, one question will continue to remain on the minds of many chapter leaders–what now? Can they still count on your association to provide the leadership resources they need to continue to bring community and education to members? The future is still uncertain, but what’s clear is that chapters will need to change how they deliver value to members.
While we figure it all out, there is no doubt that this is an excellent opportunity to introduce your chapter leaders to different forms of virtual education. The best way to learn is through experience. Join in as we explore how to turn your chapter leader training to virtual meetings that create engaging connections in unexpected ways.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Introduction to AI for Nonprofits with Tapp NetworkTechSoup
Dive into the world of AI! Experts Jon Hill and Tareq Monaur will guide you through AI's role in enhancing nonprofit websites and basic marketing strategies, making it easy to understand and apply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

BILLHIGHWAY: A SOLUTION FOR BETTER CHAPTER PERFORMANCE
Do you ever wonder if there are ways you can help your chapters be more effective? Chapter leaders are typically not association management experts. They’re not financial whizzes, compliance professionals, database managers, technologists, or website administrators. The responsibilities of managing a chapter take many of them far outside their comfort zone and can limit their effectiveness in serving members.
The good news is you and your chapter leaders don’t have to put up with this frustrating situation. The solution is out there, but you might not know about it yet. Everyone’s familiar with AMS, LMS, event registration platforms, and other tools used for chapter management. But do you know that Billhighway unifies all that functionality into one solution that helps to significantly improve chapter performance, increase member retention, and grow revenue?
Join us to learn more about how you can dramatically increase the performance of your chapters and why your chapter leaders and Executive Director will love you for it.
