OUR STORY

Managing an Organization is Very Different than Selling a Service or Product

Tighter budgets, return on investment demands, more to do with less time. These are just some of the challenges firms face today. The Advancing Organizational Excellence Team (AOE) understands the challenges you face. Instead of just simply implementing tactics, we work with you to develop a strategy that helps you accomplish your goals.

AOE is the merger of two well-known consulting firms (CAM and CCI) with decades of experience serving associations and companies in technical industries. Creative Association Management (CAM) has provided full-service association management expertise ranging from publications, certification, HR, financial, strategic planning, event/meeting planning and execution, as well as strategic and operational planning since 1990. Founded in 2001, Constructive Communication, Inc. is the recognized leader in marketing strategy, public relations, social media, graphic design and communications tactics. The combined forces of these two firms results in a team of 90-plus employees with hands-on, real-world experience.

So, we ask, “What can AOE do for you today?”
