Register for the Awards Luncheon & Silent Auction

The VSAE community will come together on Friday, December, to recognize this year's recipients of the VSAE Awards of Excellence and celebrate the holiday season!  

Looking to snag a great gift for a loved one, friend, or yourself while also supporting a good cause? Proceeds from the silent auction will benefit VSAE’s education fund, which supports VSAE's ability to provide professional development programs for members, and the Richmond Animal League, an organization committed to saving the lives of animals and finding loving homes for pets for over 45 years.  

Also in the spirit of this giving season, we'll be collecting non-perishable food items to donate to FeedMore. Bring a couple of cans or boxes from your pantry with you the day of the event.

 The Strategic Thinking Process: Are You Asking the Right Questions?

Join your colleagues on November 7 at the Westin Richmond as we address the technique of strategic thinking. While we know it's important, strategic thinking is often neglected in organizational dynamics or is incorrectly viewed as interchangeable with strategic planning.

Dr. John Dentico will explore these complementary processes and how they represent the difference between leadership and management, effectiveness and efficiency, and transforming and incremental change. Attendees will engage in a Micro Strategic Thinking Exercise using the TSWG method, leveraging their experience and knowledge to develop an initial plan to increase association membership.

Approved for 1.5 CAE Credits
