Watch: How Associations Will Thrive

2020 is a tipping point for associations as millennials become the majority of the workforce, reaching up to 75% in 2025. But millennials only represent 19% of association membership. Bridging this divide will be critical to an association’s relevance and survival in this next decade.

So what do millennials want? Purpose, community and simplicity.

This hyper-connected population loves building social ties and collaborating, but on their terms: easy to use, mobile-first, connected to purpose and with a sense of belonging.

Most associations aren’t prepared to meet these demands. Old technology and engagement techniques like forums and gamification don’t work anymore. And social media continues to eat away at membership.

In this webinar, hear from Dave Hersh, CEO at Mobilize, Ben Martin, CEO at Online Community Results and Alexis Luscutof, Director of Community Strategy at Mobilize, as they explore the strategies and technologies enlightened associations are using to grow, engage and delight millennials.
