So how might the APA better meet the needs of the profession?

MOVING TO FRONT FROM YESTERDAY TO ENCOURAGE MORE CONTRIBUTIONS to what has been a robust and informative comment thread.

===================================

The results of last week's poll were pretty negative; here are the results as of late yesterday:

How would you rate the APA\'s performance in meeting the needs of the profession? Excellent   1% (12) very good   6% (49) good   15% (127) Fair   36% (308) poor   42% (354)

Even allowing for the fact that the aggrieved are more motivated to vote in a poll like this, the results are still pretty stunningly lopsided.   So, in a more constructive vein, I'd like to invite readers to comment substantively on what the APA is doing right and what things the APA ought to be doing to better meet the needs of the profession.  Signed comments will be preferred, though current job seekers may post without putting their name in the signature line.
