2022 URMA Member Survey
ABOUT THE SURVEY
This year, we focused on 4 main topics:
- Better understanding the organization’s demographics, so we can better serve and expand our membership, identify and overcome our biases, and improve our own DEI efforts
- The kinds of teams that we are on, our backgrounds, and our salaries (perhaps to assist in future negotiation efforts!?)
- The kinds of content we produce and what we do with that content, and
- Magazines, especially our digital presence. This is meant to complement the previous survey, which heavily explored print magazines.
Special thanks to Edyta Zielinska, Chelsea Julian, and Joe McClain, who provided very useful feedback during the survey planning process.
Question may be sent to Gail L. McCormick
