Keynote - Power of community and agility - the next generation association
Charles Cameron, CEO - Recruitment, Consulting and Staffing Association Australia & New Zealand

Engagement is not just a buzzword. It’s a critical element of ensuring your association is sustainable and future fit. Being an agile and responsive association of the future, means building and responding to your community in ways that promote genuine connection and meaning for your members. If you can build your community, you can harness the power of your community across all aspects of your strategic purpose and achieve results that far exceed your size and resources. RCSA has been on a path of self-discovery and re-invention over the past three years, and the power of community has been demonstrated through our growth, achievements and increasing influence. Critical in this process has been increasing our direct meaningful engagement with members, and empowering and supporting our members to grow their communities. RCSA’s purpose is to Lead in the World of Work and we firmly believe that through leadership, and empowerment of our members, we will improve lives, communities and the economy.
