Eric Lanke: Continental Drift by Russell Banks
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/2015/07/continental-drift-by-russell-banks.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. Saturday, July 25, 2015. Continental Drift by Russell Banks. Banks is an amazing writer. Here’s another. Three paragraphs later. But Bob isn’t the only character Banks wants us to know. After introducing Bob, he switches to a second major character, Vanise Dorsinwille, a young, illiterate Haitian mother who will seek refuge from poverty by fleeing to America, whose tale will at first alternate and then eventually intersect with Bob&...It̵...

Eric Lanke: Books Read
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/p/books-read.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. I have a horrible memory. And I love to read. In the year 2000, while lamenting the fact that I couldn't remember anything about books I had read just the year before, I started keeping a journal where I wrote down the things I wanted to remember about the books I was reading. My tastes are eclectic. I read a little bit of everything, but find myself returning again and again to authors like T. C. Boyle. 04/30/16 - The Stranger by Albert Camus.

Eric Lanke: Roadmapping Is Just as Important as Roadmaps
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/2015/08/roadmapping-is-just-as-important-as.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. Monday, August 3, 2015. Roadmapping Is Just as Important as Roadmaps. Roadmapping is just as important as roadmaps.". That's a paraphrased quote from a facilitator my association hired to help us develop a manufacturing roadmap for the technology our industry makes. There's been a lot of advances in manufacturing technologies in the past few years (anyone ever heard of 3D printing or additive manufacturing? And what's the roadmapping? The roa...

Eric Lanke: Fiction
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/p/writing-projects_25.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. I began writing fiction as an outlet for my creativity in high school, and quickly came to appreciate its potential as a mechanism for self-exploration and as a repository for truth. Before building a career in association management, I studied English Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Wisconsin. My seventh novel, Columbia. Is available for download from this blog. Centering on the character of Enis Decker, and describing h...

Eric Lanke: Core Values
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/p/core-values.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. I've written about values statements and how much I hate them. They're phony, I've said. They're never about the values that an organization actually holds, they're about the values the leaders of that organization wished it held. And those leaders stretch the values so far into the unrealistic ideal, that there's no way for the people in the organization to take them seriously. 03/30/15 - My Script for Reinforcing Our Core Values. 08/25/14 -...

Eric Lanke: Getting Members Engaged Is Like Running a Maker Lab
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/2015/07/getting-members-engaged-is-like-running.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. Monday, July 20, 2015. Getting Members Engaged Is Like Running a Maker Lab. I pulled that quote from the introduction of the recently-released white paper, "Leading Engagement from the Outside In: Become an Indispensable Partner in Your Members' Success," by Anna Caraveli and Elizabeth Weaver Engel. If you're interested, you can get a copy here. What if, instead of viewing members as passive consumers of our benefits and programs, we worked w...

Eric Lanke: A Mission is Short and to the Point
http://ericlanke.blogspot.com/2015/06/a-mission-is-short-and-to-point.html
Association executive, constant reader, and occasional author. Monday, June 15, 2015. A Mission is Short and to the Point. Two weeks ago I provided an example of a Strategy Agenda, a new term I've introduced in my association to represent the essential work product of our Board of Directors. Comprised of four distinct elements, each one nesting in the one that precedes it, our Strategy Agenda describes what we want to achieve and how we will measure our success in achieving it. Our mission is to strength...
