Each is described in an action brief that examines its implications and offers ideas for steps associations can take to respond to the trend. The drivers most pertinent to technology include: - **Algorithms and Rights.** This action brief addresses growing concern about the fairness, opacity, and lack of accountability around algorithmic systems. Many see a need for legal protections and regulations to ensure rights and prevent discrimination in an increasingly automated age. - **Anticipatory Intelligence.**Big data, data analytics, and artificial intelligence are enabling predictive analytics that can anticipate needs, opportunities, and threats in an organization’s environment. This action brief looks at how groups can use big data and transform information into actionable insight. - **Taming Big Tech.**Updated in 2021, this brief explores the unprecedented (and still growing) power and influence of consumer technology companies and how they create a variety of challenges for both governments and civil society. ***[Benchmarking in Association Management, Policies and Procedures, Vol. 2 (2018) (opens in a new tab)](https://www.asaecenter.org/publications/D/3/7/3/9/112171-benchmarking-in-association-management-20182019-policies-and-procedures-vol-2)*** Compare your association’s practices against others of similar size and type. This resource focuses on key considerations in five functional areas of association management, including information technology. The data, collected from responses to the ASAE Research Foundation’s Benchmarking in Association Management surveys, gives you a firsthand look at what other organizations are doing in those areas. ***[Tech Success for Associations: Balancing IT Maturity, Readiness, and Expectations for a Satisfying, Sustainable Future (2016) (opens in a new tab)](https://www.asaecenter.org/publications/108957-tech-success-for-associations-balancing-it-maturity-readiness-and-expectations-for-a-satisfying-sustainable-future-pdf)*** The research, conducted by the ASAE Research Foundation, gathered data from more than 5,000 association IT decision makers and members to explore technology success through measurement in three conceptual areas: IT maturity, techno-readiness, and member satisfaction. It explains what associations need to do to keep up with changes in technology and meet member expectations. ### Learning Opportunities These programs offer professional development suited for association tech teams and others who influence technology decisions. ### Demo Days These full-day virtual events, taking place throughout the year, feature presentations from a limited number of industry partners that offer various association technology platforms.
