Sound Familiar? [Case Study for Professional Bodies] A not-for-profit industry body recently completed a survey of its 200-odd corporate and individual members to gather feedback on how it could enhance its membership services as well as its profile within the industry. The results supported previous anecdotal feedback that members desired their professional body to more proactively raise the standing of the profession through relevant and timely continuing education and networking activities with other stakeholders within the industry. Currently, this body organised a major annual conference and 2-3 ad hoc member events each year. Staffed by an already strapped 3-person Secretariat and headed by an annually elected Council of 15 busy volunteers, there was little time or resources to do much more each year. Much depended on the goodwill and efforts of the volunteer Committee members. While the professional body wished to grow its membership, it found itself in the unenviable Catch-22 situation of not having the resources to kick start these efforts, which would in turn bring in the much needed funds and, consequently, desired industry profile and membership growth. Should it hire more Secretariat staff? Would these new staff be able to research, shortlist and develop the many ideas the Committee has put this new aggressive mandate into action? Wouldn’t it be great to have an external partner who understood the challenges of a non-profit professional body work with them from discussion stage, through to planning, implementation and even review and refinement, without adding to overheads?
