Industry associations

How do you discuss strategy in a group full of competitors? How do you make ‘the pie’ bigger for all members? How do you use your annual conference not only to look back, but also to look forward? Through lectures, workshops, explorations and developing future-oriented visions De Ruijter Strategy helps industry associations to map the future of their branch. This helps the members of the bureau of the association, but also stakeholders in the external environment, such as creditors.

Also read our article ‘Creating a bigger pie’, written in cooperation with Jules Lejeune, of Lejeune Association Management.
