This document discusses how associations can build engagement among members and attract younger generations using a participatory culture and pull economy model. It outlines that traditional push models with hierarchical, standardized programs are no longer effective and associations need more decentralized, demand-driven, and customized approaches. This includes focusing on conversation and collaboration over events, being agile and responsive to members, openly sharing best practices, and using tools that facilitate participation like social media, crowdsourcing, and content distribution. The goal is to transition from anticipating what members want to understanding and fulfilling their actual needs to build loyalty.
