Association Management
Your organization’s leaders—officers, board and committee members—today want the ability to lead their organizations without being distracted by issues and situations that could be accomplished by your Management Company. AAM will provide advice to officers and directors to reach goals, objectives and strategic plans.
AAM helps to create a specific written plan that meets your association’s needs. AAM is focused on the daily responsibilities to meet the annual budget and set timelines of activities so the leaders of your association can lead and plan for the future. AAM will conduct a strategic planning session for your association so we can quickly identify the goals for you and your members. We will assist with any change in leadership so there is a smooth transition from year to year. Each Board and Committee member will receive a detailed job description and manual so they understand their role with the association and receive key information to assist them in their decision making.
