 » Social Snapshot: The Latest From Association Social Spaces

### From LinkedIn

“We have seen great success by identifying [board] leaders … who have a vision for the industry and their profession and want to help others reach that vision. We haven’t looked for representatives or nice/fun people, but those with courage who are willing to ask the tough questions.” *—Bonnie Fedchock, CAE, executive director, National Association for Catering and Events, on ASAE’s LinkedIn group*

### From Collaborate

“The most important thing that you need in order to derive actionable intelligence from your [website] analytics is to be clear about your goals and measures of success. Otherwise … you’re just looking at numbers.” *—Philippa Gamse, president, Websites That Win International, on ASAE’s Collaborate network*

### From Twitter

**@LindaChreno:***I love working with assns because of the people, the missions, & the variety of orgs that are changing their & my world!*

### From AssociationsNow.com

“As association professionals, we need to realize that our prospects have a lot of other opportunities for networking and socializing and getting professional development. … Whether we want to admit it or not, we are in competition for the time and money of our members and prospects.” *—Steve Drake, president, SCD Group, Inc., on AssociationsNow.com*
