This year WindsorEssex Leadercast is being held at the Imagine Cinemas in Lakeshore.
Our first (ad)venture into a theatre setting.
How do you prepare to attend this event? In no particular order....
- Be on Time
- registration is between 8 - 8:45am
- a short welcome address will be on at 8:50am
- speakers will kick off at 9am
- Be There.
- we will ask you to turn off your phone or at least have it on silent (respect for those around you, as well as the time investment in yourself for the day)
- let the people back at the office know you are in development day and will get to your messages at the breaks
- there will be lots of breaks
- Be Ready - bring your business cards
- there will be 300+ people to meet....
- be open, make new connections
- plan to do the follow up after the event
- Be On - participate
- there will be time to add your thoughts - in words, in writing and more at the event - don't be shy
- answer questions
- Be All In - take notes
- there will be a lot going on all day long so taking notes can help you trigger reminders later as you review the information
- we will provide you with a pen, a journal and a booklight
- you can also use your tech tools for notes
- we will send out follow up notes all year long to help you refocus on your learning from the day
Looking forward to having you out at Leadercast on Friday May 9, 2014.
If you have other ideas on how to prepare for this type of session - please share!
