The GRN San Francisco Conference was AMAZING… beautiful weather, great activities, great camaraderie, and fantastic training.
When you work from home, it’s easy to retreat into your little bubble. However, when a team/company conference is put on, it’s worth it to ditch the bunny slippers and do what it takes to go.
The conference itself was worth the price of admission (which was a measly $98, by the way). What’s so INVALUABLE is the informal networking and idea sharing with the others you meet there. Not to mention fun activities like wine tours through Sonoma (which I had to miss, darn!) and biking over the Golden Gate Bridge! (hint, that’s where a lot of that informal networking occurs)
The next conference is in Dallas in January 2009. I’ll be there. Will you?
