It's A New Kind of CSRA Experience

The week is thoughtfully structured around core functions and strategic priorities.

The Annual Meeting opens with the CEO’s arrival for our Board functions and dinner, setting the tone for the week’s discussions. Government Affairs then joins for joint sessions centered on leadership strategy and advocacy priorities, ensuring alignment at the highest levels.

Midweek, the full SRA team, Foundation, Marketing & Communications, and Membership, arrive for a shared general session and reception, for cross-functional collaboration and organizational cohesion. Government Affairs concludes its portion of the week. 

Come Thursday, the focus then shifts to operational execution, as CEOs and association teams translate strategic priorities into actionable plans for the year ahead.
