Staying Healthy
To ensure a safe environment for all participants, please adhere to the following guidelines.
- Participants are asked to bring their own face covering, as they will be required to wear it at all times except when eating or drinking.
- The conference room will be set up to comfortably allow for 6-foot social distancing between all participants.
- The building will receive a professional deep-clean prior to the event.
- The best practice to prevent any illness is to wash your hands frequently using the proper technique: wet-lather-scrub-rinse-dry.
- Use hand sanitizer when soap and water is not available. Hand-sanitizer will be readily available.
- Avoid touching your face, specifically your eyes, nose, and mouth, as this is how germs enter your body. Cough into your elbow, NOT your hand.
- Stay home if you’re feeling sick.

Schedule
8:30 – 9:00 a.m. Registration / Check-in
9:00 – 10:15 a.m. Facilitated Discussion - Where Are We Now? Leading Through Crisis and Uncertainty
Kathy Greenier & John Sarvay, Floricane
Leaders, teams, individuals, and communities are facing unprecedented times. Floricane will facilitate a clarity-building and connection-boosting discussion about the realities and impacts of the current environment, focusing on how to navigate with intention and agility, as well support and empathy. We cultivate dialogue in an informal, conversational, and interactive way. Floricane creates conversations with the belief that the answers are in the room, and we pride ourselves on facilitating in a way that draws them out. We structure the conversation, ask the right questions, and guide the group towards shared understanding, action plans, and the “lightbulb moments” that can only result from cultivating a mix of perspectives. We believe that when individuals use conversation to wrestle with and make sense of their future – with the help of a facilitation partner to guide them - they always find the right path. Come prepared to share, listen, and ask questions about what factors are impacting your organization, your people (teams and clients), and your leadership.
10:15 – 10:30 a.m. Break
10:30 a.m. – 12:15 p.m. Leading Through Turbulent Times: An Insights® Leadership Session
Kathy Greenier & John Sarvay, Floricane
Never has effective leadership been more important, and never has it been more challenging. Building off of the themes and ideas surfaced in the morning's facilitated discussion, this session will help participants build readiness and capacity for the challenges they’re currently facing, and the future ahead. As leaders move through this period of transition, it’s essential to balance multiple perspectives, and deploy concrete skills to influence, support, and drive results. Leaders must act with purpose and in alignment with their organization’s priorities, all while maintaining employee focus, motivation, and commitment. Participants will 1) diagnose their current opportunities to operate on multiple levels, simultaneously: to be reactive, to stabilize and sustain, and to transform; 2) co-create solutions they can use now to face obstacles; and 3) make a plan for the actions, mindsets, and behaviors necessary for effective leadership while navigating through this period of transition with intention.
12:15 – 1:15 p.m. Lunch
1:15 – 3:15 p.m. Legal Issues Impacting AMCs
Blake Hegeman, KaneJeffries, LLP and VSAE Legal Counsel
From a legal perspective, associations today are facing critical issues that affect all aspects of their organization. By considering potential risks or events before they happen and having a risk management plan in place, you can save money and protect your organization’s future. Hear from an association attorney about managing your organization’s exposure. This session will highlight areas associations must focus on and will provide suggestions they can implement immediately on topics such as the value of a fiduciary pledge, antitrust issues, and legal considerations in light of COVID-19.
