Are you ready for the fall conference season? If you’re leading a breakout session, start by saying THANK YOU to the people who chose to walk into your session room! Acknowledge your audience’s discernment and good taste. They chose YOUR session, after all.
“Thanks everyone for being here. We love that you’re as interested in widget replication as we are. We’re going to cover some great stuff today!”
Whether your breakout is one of three or 350 at your company’s user conference or whether you have ten people in your room or 200, it’s wonderful to acknowledge the people who show up to your session room.
Everyone wants to feel seen and valued. When you start by seeing, valuing, and thanking your audience, you’ve already done half of what you’re in that breakout session to do.
Take the risk out of being in the spotlight! I can prepare you, your teams and your leaders to tell your company’s story with confidence, shape the industry and maybe even change the world.
