An Exclusive HOAleader.com Webinar
with Practical Tips for Condo and HOA Boards
|
Your fellow board member texts you about a motion that's pending. Is that OK?
Your entire board is on a Facebook Messenger thread talking about whether to use reserve funds for a project. Are you allowed to do that?
Just a few of your board members, which happens to constitute a quorum, have jumped on WhatsApp to grouse about issues in the community. Is that wise?
Let's face it: You might have tools you like to use with friends or at work to communicate with a team or a large group. But does that mean they're a good fit to use with your HOA board? What could go wrong?
The lines between what's problematic and what's the proper way to conduct condo/HOA business are increasingly blurry today when so many tech communication platforms are in play.
Join us for an in-depth webinar on June 17, where you'll see those issues brought into focus. You'll hear two condo/HOA experts work through the challenges that arise when boards use today's tech tools, social media platforms, to other forums to conduct association business.
You'll get clear and helpful information on:
- How tech tools — like BaseCamp and TeamSnap — can facilitate your communication and ease recordkeeping burdens
- The challenges of using multiple platforms for condo/HOA operations
- When offhand communications on various platforms might constitute a board meeting that must be noticed to members
- The risks of failing to maintain proper condo/HOA records when communicating on an array of platforms
- Whether using the apps you use with friends or workmates could create legal risks—for you as an individual board member or for your association—when you use them to do conduct HOA board business
- What to know about the appearance of quick and private communications; what will your owners think when they hear you're conducting board business on various platforms
- Dos and don'ts for meeting your legal duties when using various platforms boards use these platforms for board business
- And much more!
In 60 minutes, you'll receive valuable, actionable information that will help you better understand how to better manage your community's communications and meet your legal obligations. Register now for this informative event for community association board members.
