Key Points
Collaboration
In the next 5 years, Mandy sees an Association filled with collaboration. Where “everyone knows everyone”. When everyone collaborates, it can accomplish something so much bigger.
Collaborating and working together also gives members the opportunity to share their knowledge about the industry!
Get Involved
Mandy says, “We’re only as strong as our membership base.”
Without the members and everyone involved, the SFA doesn’t have a voice. She encourages everyone to get involved participate in things like surveys, as well as, sending emails with suggestions about what they need.
As members and as a community, Mandy says, “We need to have our voices heard!”
“We’re only as strong as our membership base. We encourage our members to reach out to us and engage with surveys and research initiatives. We need to have the industry voices voices heard!”
