Conversation Sessions Anywhere
ICA held the first of three Community
Conversation Sessions on Aug. 20, and members
opened up about a variety of topics relating to our
Kiawah community. These engagement sessions provide
an opportunity for the KICA board to learn property
owners’ perceptions of the current and future direction
of the community, which will help guide the association’s
strategic planning.
The next two community
conversations
are
on Attend a session:
Monday, Oct. 8 at 6 p.m.
and Thursday, Nov. 15 at Oct. 8 - 6 p.m.
9 a.m. at The Sandcastle
Nov. 15 - 9 a.m.
ballroom. During these
sessions, David McNair of the
McNair Group facilitates discussion by using interactive
smartphone polling. When David asks for a topic you’re
interested in discussing or a word to describe how you
feel about a topic, your response will be anonymously
displayed on screen. The results are compiled as you
watch. This provides a unique opportunity for KICA’s
board to get to hear from a wider range of members than
in a typical meeting where few are likely to speak up. It’s
also fun!
We encourage you to participate in person, but if you
are not on-island, you can join the conversation through
a livestream of the meeting and smartphone polling.
Instructions for remote participation will be available at
kica.us and will be provided in KICA’s weekly email to
members.
This word cloud depicts feedback from the Aug. 20
engagement session.
Reservations are not required to attend. After these
meetings conclude, The McNair Group will analyze
feedback and provide a follow-up survey for all members.
Opportunities for your participation will continue and
KICA’s board looks forward to hearing your voice.
