Getting the most out of LIFT08

February 5, 2008 - 16:31 — Glenn O'Neil

Dear Lifters,

From the network mapping study we undertook of LIFT07, one participant built their network from four to 28 people during the conference. How did she do this amazing feat? I asked her to share her thoughts on getting the most out of LIFT, here are her comments:

1. Don't be afraid to listen in, hanging on the periphery and finally, jump into the conversation
2. Accept all invitations (assuming they're proper!) for drinks, dinners, presentations, whatever to increase opportunities for exchange
3. Don't forget it's only 3 days: eat, sleep and breathe it all in
4. Participate in the pre-conference workshops if possible - where you can meet people in a more informal setting.

And for the seasoned Lifter:
Break out of your clique: aim to share ideas with people outside of your network

See you at LIFT!
Glenn

Great advice - Indeed make

Great advice - Indeed make the most of LIFT while you can. It is the place where a lot of new speakers are seen for the first time. A word of encouragement after helps wonders. Also business cards with your photo on it. And wearing a smile works wonders too. Looking forward to it.
