About This Webinar

Associations North’s Angela Kisskeys and Sarah Ruzek have successfully co-led their organization for three years and counting, finding a way to prove that two heads really are better than one. We dive into a conversation with these two directors to find out if their success as a co-leadership team is an anomaly, or something we can all learn from.

This will be a 30-minute session.

SURGE Connect is a production of AssociationSuccess.org and presented by Feathr, which provides multi-channel marketing technology used by 700 associations to grow membership, event attendance, and digital sponsorship revenue. Learn more at https://feathr.co today!
