CONGRATULATIONS TO
ROBERT A. HALL
Robert Hall's new book, Chaos for Breakfast: Practical Help and Humor for the Non-Profit Executive was just published by the American Society of Association Executives (ASAE.) The book was originally intended to be an e-book only, with a limited number of  hard copies available for sale at conferences. However, the book quickly became an ASAE best seller and it is now available on the ASAE website in both print &  e-book versions. Proceeds from the sale of this book will benefit the ASAE Foundation and the Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation.
    
From tongue-in-cheek musings to straight-ahead advice, it's all here in this collection from an exec who has been there, done that, and earned his stripes. A sampling of the topics covered in Mr. Hall's book includes:
  
          How to Know When It's Time Go.
          Murphy's Laws for Associations.
          Must There Be Metrics?
          How to Wreck Your Association in Only One Year.
          10 Rules for the Care and Feeding of Volunteers.
