As the world's leading association management and professional services company, SmithBucklin's knowledge base and resources are unmatched. With more than 50 years of experience in successfully managing trade associations, professional societies and technology user groups, our 750 associates and 235 client organization professionals provide maximum value and results due to our growth-focused practices, best-in-class expertise and world-class infrastructure - as well as a culture that places earning trust, delivering uncompromised client stewardship, and building long-term relationships above all else.
Our approach to full-service management involves bringing together a team of management and specialist talent skilled in all aspects of volunteer-governed organizations, then supporting it with a robust yet cost-effective headquarters infrastructure. The staff team is led by a SmithBucklin association executive, who serves as your chief staff executive with the support of a SmithBucklin senior director.
Our experience in managing and working with a large and diverse set of client organizations has also allowed us to develop industry-specific practice areas. These units - focusing on the areas of business trade, health care and technology - offer client organizations significant expertise and understanding regarding the unique challenges and requirements of the industries they serve.
Because we tailor each service arrangement to client-specific needs and because each client is served by its own management team, we can effectively serve groups of any size. Whatever the size, scope or level of requirements, SmithBucklin offers a unique convergence of talent, experience and resources to support and enhance every possible area of association activity, including:
We operate under the direction of your board of directors and other key volunteer leaders, always respecting your organization's independence and autonomy. The members of your staff team work closely with your organization's leadership to plan and execute association initiatives, programs and member services based on your organization's overall mission, strategy and objectives. Your staff team is also responsible for providing strategic and operational leadership, as well as suggesting innovative ideas and new approaches. Throughout all of our work, we ensure that each and every client organization identity - as defined by its customs, beliefs and values - is protected, nurtured and preserved. This principle is deeply embedded in The SmithBucklin Culture.
Driven by our constant commitment to listening carefully to clients and understanding their current needs and future goals, we continuously work to ensure that our customized solutions are achieving goals, driving growth and building sustained competitiveness for our client organizations.
