Got Goals

When you attend an event, do you just go with the flow and see what happens? Or do you set goals to meet certain people and learn specific skills in order to elevate your business? Guess which one I recommend!

To get what you want, you need to know what that is.

The more targeted you are on your event goals, the more likely you will come away feeling like your time, money, and energy were well-spent!

Resource: “Sustainable Leadership Live” Interview

When Lisa Danforth interviewed me on her live show, we discussed:

  1. Setting conference goals that are in alignment with your business/expertise
  2. Networking strategies for in-person and virtual conferences
  3. Ways to set yourself up for success

Watch the video.

Goal of the Week

Set up a Zoom coffee meeting with someone you met at a conference. Catch up and see how you can support each other’s efforts. Remember, relationship development goes way beyond a LinkedIn request.
