#12: Authenticity, Empowerment, and the Future of Leadership with Artesha Moore of Association Forum

The Association Adviser Podcast

We’re in an authentic leadership revolution. In this episode, you’ll learn how to show up fully as association leader and how to succeed without sacrificing yourself or your values.

In today’s Season Two premier of the Association Adviser Podcast, we have the pleasure of speaking with Artesha Moore, FASAE, CAE, President & CEO of Association Forum. She inspires with her vision for this new style of leadership where honest communication is prioritized and failure is valued for the lessons it teaches.

This conversation gets into the state of diversity in the association world and the ways that Artesha and host Christine Shaw are continuing to move that conversation forward. We discuss Artesha’s philosophy about mentoring the next generation of association leaders, why she never gives them advice, and the ways she prefers to show her support.

Artesha discusses the influences and passions that show up in her leadership style, from Buddhism to dystopian novels. Plus, she shares how she broke out of the cookie-cutter model of leadership and learned to show up as her full self.

You’ll learn:

• The forward-thinking mindset that prepares organizations for unexpected challenges.
• How to supercharge your data through contextualization.
• The importance of aligning technology with organizational goals.
• The crucial skills needed for future leaders in an AI-driven world.
• How inclusivity and diverse voices can elevate an organization to the next level.
