Background

About Heather Duve

I am an accomplished association management professional with a passion for fostering growth, engagement, and lasting relationships within membership-based organizations. With a proven track record spanning eight years at the Water Quality Association in Lisle, Illinois, I have consistently demonstrated expertise in membership development, strategic planning, and revenue generation. Throughout my tenure, I spearheaded initiatives that propelled membership growth and engagement, while effectively managing a substantial budget of $3 million. Noteworthy achievements include exceeding annual convention sponsorship budgets by an average of 12% over five years, and successfully transitioning 82% of sponsorships to virtual platforms in response to evolving needs during the pandemic. One of my proudest accomplishments was the introduction of the "Power Morning" educational track, which significantly increased attendance and member engagement during our annual Convention. Moreover, I orchestrated a comprehensive rebranding of our membership recognition program, resulting in an impressive 89% increase in participation. I am deeply passionate about leveraging data-driven insights, strategic partnerships, and continuous improvement to drive organizational success. As I embark on new professional endeavors, I am eager to bring my expertise in membership growth, engagement, and strategic development to organizations committed to making a meaningful impact in their respective industries.
