“You make me very proud of our decision to choose you as WSAE’s Exec.  Thanks for confirming that hard decisions do pay off.  As the Past President, I am glad to be going off the Board leaving the organization in GREAT hands.”

“WSAE is one of the highest profile associations in Wisconsin and it takes exceptional talents and expertise to administer and lead such an organization.  When you consider that most of the WSAE Membership and Leadership perform the same function on a daily basis and have definite opinions on how organizations should be managed, Lynda Patterson and Association Management Partners have certainly impressed in a very short period of time.  In just over a year and half WSAE has become a much more vibrant and vital organization and much of that can be attributed to the services provided by Lynda and her staff.  WSAE looks to even greater growth in the years ahead and we look forward to working with Association Management Partners in achieving that goal.”

Daniel C. Borschke, CAE

“AMP successfully guided us through the development of our bylaws, the incorporation process, and recognition by the IRS as a not for profit organization. We are currently working with AMP to develop our operations manual. Throughout these processes AMP’s Lynda Patterson has provided valuable counsel based on her experiences with other similar organizations.”

“All of the AMCs we evaluated were good but AMP was outstanding. They have the personality, communication skills and confidence we were searching for. AMP has broad experience and expertise in association management accompanied with youthful, innovative ideas and exuberance that we believed were really essential to develop and grow our membership.”

“The Junior Volleyball Association was a fledging two year old association that was struggling with who we were, what we wanted to be and how to get there. We had a passionate board of very strong personalities with very similar goals but very different ideas on how to get there. Lynda Patterson accomplished in about six hours what we couldn’t do in two years. I highly recommend Association Management Partners for your group’s strategic planning.”
