    Learning That Leads: How Associations Can Drive Industry Growth

    In this episode of Learning by Association, we explore how associations can successfully navigate digital transformation by rethinking their approach to learning and member engagement. Host Bill Sheehan speaks with guest, Ayça Donaghy, CEO of the Lighting Industry Association (LIA), who shares a compelling roadmap for how associations can gain the trust and approval of their boards, align with vendors and build learning strategies that drive industry-wide impact. Donaghy offers practical insights into how she secured board buy-in by reframing learning as a strategic asset rather than a cost centre. She also discusses the importance of involving staff and members early in the process, treating learning platforms like integral parts of the team and using pilot programs to demonstrate tangible value.
