Many Konferens Stockholm nära Arlanda offer high impact keynote speakers and a great depth of potential insights into our industry every year, so you will have dozens of options to choose from. How, however, do you determine the true return on investment of your work for your employer?
Become more knowledgeable
Obviously, the main benefit of attending a conference is that you will learn new concepts and business practices which will allow you to improve your efficiency and effectiveness as a professional. Even the most experienced club managers need to keep up with their knowledge and stay current with the ever-changing demands of technology, customer needs, and demographics.
By attending conferences, you are able to hear from industry leaders and professionals and ask them questions in a face-to-face setting that cannot be replicated by reading an article or listening to a podcast from your office.
Networking
As a manager in the club world, you will have the chance to meet managers with a variety of backgrounds, from different parts of the world, who have unique expertise and who offer you the opportunity to grow personally and professionally.
Managing a club is no different than managing any other business and you can access the experience of others (or learn from mistakes too) through your network. A reciprocal arrangement could result in a club visit or a mutual benefit for your club members.
It is vital for your career and your business to network with your peers in order to gain ideas, best practices, insights, and contacts. A conference is frequently the only way to connect with mentors and friends you wouldn’t otherwise be able to contact via social media as your network grows.
Career development
By participating in a conference, you demonstrate a commitment to learning and improving your skills, which not only builds up your CV, but also provides educational credits for the CCM pathway. Additionally, you may even meet someone who could be your next employer!
Vendors
Meeting industry suppliers is difficult in a typical working day, and conferences often provide an invaluable opportunity to meet with sales directors and CEOs, who can often be some of the most valuable contacts you can make.
It is important to spend time with industry suppliers who understand the club environment and provide bespoke solutions to everyday problems as technology becomes ever more sophisticated. Conferences provide a unique opportunity to meet with all types of suppliers involved in club management.
Grin!
In club management, it is easy to become accustomed to the daily grind and get stuck in a rut. There should always be a sense of fun and energizing atmosphere at conferences, promoted by people who are passionate about their profession. As a result, you’ll be happier, healthier and more productive at the job you chose. Additionally, having a colleague attend the event can serve as a great team building exercise.
A conference can provide you with these benefits, to summarize.
- Become more knowledgeable
- Gain and share best practices and new ideas
- Get the latest insights and innovations
- Face-to-face meetings with industry influencers
- Connect with friends and colleagues and make new contacts
