Wednesday | June 24 | 6:30am | Rootwad Park on the St. Louis River Walk GATORADE EXPO HALL BOOTH #1607 COMMUNICATING WHAT MATTERS MOST TO YOU We know you desire information and resources that are specific and relevant to where you are in your career, whether you identify by age group, job setting or another topic of interest. One of our major projects is the development of targeted communications that will allow NATA members to create a more tailored member experience. You’ll be able to handpick the information you receive, getting right to the topics that interest you the most. For the initial launch this summer, we’ve identified the most popular professional interests, considering your setting and career level. This includes: secondary school, college/university, higher education, professional sports, emerging settings, young professionals and students. So, what will this look like? We’re glad you asked! Starting this summer at NATA 2015 you’ll begin seeing visual icons throughout the convention, as well as in all national communications and initiatives, for each of these professional interests. The icon will serve as a visual cue that the information presented is something relevant to members with that professional interest. It’s important to note that without member feedback, we would have a much harder time knowing exactly what you need or want from the national office. We are listening carefully to your ideas and opinions, and your input is extremely valuable. We’ll be conducting a member satisfaction and value survey soon, and we hope you’ll choose to participate. Your feedback will help us refine this strategy and provide insight and inspiration for new initiatives to come. TAKE A CLOSER LOOK Look For Your Icon. At NATA 2015, we’re kicking off our plan by introducing professional interest icons. These icons will be incorpo- rated into the NATA News, Range of Motion, NATA Now, social media and more. We know you’re busy people, and we intend to help you cut through the clutter and get to the information you need by including the icons with content that is most relevant for your setting/professional interest. 34-35_HouseAd_P4.indd 34 5/18/15 1:28 PM New National Website Our targeted communications plan will be a point of focus for the new national website launching later this summer, allowing you to easily access information by job setting or professional interest. News with Your Interests in Mind Starting this fall, we’ll offer an e-newsletter exclusively for your professional interest that’s packed with resources and best practices especially for you. While you’ll automatically be opted into the professional interest that correlates with your setting, you’ll also have the opportunity to subscribe to other professional interest e-newsletters as well. To view an example, go to http://multibriefs.com/briefs/nataf3/. NATA 2015 The Square New to the convention this year is the launch of The Square, a gathering place by professional interest where you can network and learn from your peers. Just look for your respective icon at the convention – it will lead the way! Get LinkedIn Join one or more professional interests LinkedIn pages to network, share best practices and more.
