Value of an Association-Management Background

By Adam Turteltaub When Garth Jordan learned about the opportunity to lead the SCCE & HCCA, he was excited about the idea of helping to build trustworthy organizations.  And, the more he spoke with the board and talked to his peers, the more convinced he was that this was the role for him. Unlike our previous CEOs he came to the association not from compliance, but from the field of association management.  He has served in leadership roles for the American Animal Hospital Association, Healthcare Financial Management Association and Medical Group Management Association.  As he looked at SCCE & HCCA he saw a great opportunity for growth and greater impact. He tell us in this podcast that he will be focusing on the complete range of things that we do, from publishing to creating events to providing certifications to facilitating networking. Listen in to learn more about him and how he plans on using design thinking to help create a robust future for the SCCE & HCCA.
