There was a moment in my life that I wanted to be an event planner. Then there was a moment I was. Then there was a moment in life that I wanted to be the speaker at the events. Then there was a moment I was.
I’ve organized, spoken at, and attended hundreds of events (and continue to do so on a regular basis). I’ve noticed a trend that events with speakers are becoming less attended while events with panels and round tables are becoming more attended.
There’s a strong correlation between the opportunity of connection to the attendance and ultimate success of an event.
It’s merely one more indicator we’re in the middle of a connection economy. Those who work within it, who leverage the masses desire to connect will be best off.
Stay Positive & Talking With, Not To
