The November episode of Practical Significance features a fun twist as podcast producer Kim Gilliam takes her turn at the mic to interview her colleagues and Practical Significance co-hosts, Donna LaLonde and Ron Wasserstein. Armed with insider knowledge and your burning questions about the ASA, Kim leads a lively conversation that’s equal parts informative and entertaining.
Ron sets the stage by unpacking the ASA’s strategic vision built on three key themes: enhancing the diversity and breadth of our association; increasing the visibility of our profession; and ensuring the future of our profession.
The conversation takes delightful turns with questions such as the following:
- If the ASA was a superhero, what would its superpower be, and how has it used that power for good lately?
- On a scale of ‘carrier pigeon’ to ‘telepathy,’ how would you rate the ASA’s communication methods?
- On a typical day, how many cups of coffee does it take to fuel the ASA’s productivity? Are we single-handedly keeping Starbucks in business?
These are fun questions, but serious answers recognize the incredible ASA community.
The takeaway from this episode is that our community is willing to tackle challenges and keeps us moving forward! Thank you!
