We are embarking on the 17th year of this newsletter (gasp!) and I thought we should mix things up with a bit of crowd-sourcing. I've never served as a mayor, or worked with a mayor, but many of you have. I know you have ideas about what a mayor should, or shouldn't, do. Please share your ideas with us at the link below. We'll distill the answers and publish an article sharing the best tips. <https://mcusercontent.com/aba85aa51e0091ebbfd67968a/images/213f3790-636b-9fbb-e2e4-cde4ceda8d81.jpg> The three most insightful responses will receive a signed copy of our book, Mastering Council Meetings, a copy of our "Wait! Wait! Cheat Sheet," and a free enrollment in a Live Zoom Workshop or a self-paced course, to show our appreciation. Many thanks in advance for your input! Ann Ann G.

If you have been puzzled by how meetings should be run, the role of the board, and the role of owner/members, this is your chance to gain clarity. We will draw on the dozens of inquiries we receive from people who belong to HOAs and condos. You can ask your specific questions during the workshop. A recording will also be provided.

This inspired an article on this topic, detailing three different types of nonprofit organizations: member-driven, board governed, and self-perpetuating board governed.
