The need to be a part of a like-minded community has never been more important to millions of industry professionals. In this episode, we talk about community – involving young professionals into your association’s community; planning events that bring together the entire community; and evolving the way we plan those events to create an inviting community. We're excited to chat with Marty Tatman, director of member engagement for the American Farm Bureau Federation, about how associations are leading the way in creating community.
