In this business, we work alone much of the time. We are not in a traditional office setting with daily meetings and time to network on a daily basis with co-workers. The good news is that we don’t have to deal with office politics or gossip. The bad news is that networking, when done in a positive way, can be extremely valuable.
If you took away all the other components of conference - the chance to see yourself as a part of a “bigger picture”, the recognition, the seminars, the speakers, the new products, the excitement - conference is worth the price of the plane ticket for the networking alone. It is the conversations that happen over lunch, in the elevator, in hotel rooms and the hallways - after the seminars, after the general sessions, etc. It is getting the chance to share business building ideas with a consultant that lives hundreds or thousands of miles from you. The only place you can do this is at conference.
Conference is motivational and inspirational. You will come away excited, exhausted and exhilarated.

A leader is only one person and can only do the work of one person. In order to best accomplish the team’s goals and objectives, he or she must carefully delegate authority to team members.
Why we don’t delegate
Some leaders hesitate to delegate authority for the following reasons:
- They think they can do it better themselves.
- They fear others will make mistakes.
- They think team members won’t like them if they give them a lot of work and responsibility.
- They’re afraid the person will perform too well and make them look bad.
Truth is, the careful delegation of authority is one of the most important aspects of team building. When done right, it plays to the team’s strengths and gives team members valuable experience. It also gives people the opportunity to shine while freeing up the leader’s time for more important or appropriate activities.
How to delegate
While delegating authority and responsibility is crucial to team success, there are a few guidelines that should be followed:
- Choose the right person. Select someone who is capable, able and willing to take on the responsibility.
- Make expectations clear. Describe the project or task to be completed, the results expected and the timetable.
- Establish how and when you want feedback on progress. Do you prefer daily reports? A weekly e-mail?
- Give appropriate authority. Don’t give a team member a project that he or she does not have the power to complete! For example, don’t assign someone a task that requires access to a database that they can’t get into.
- Get the person’s agreement. The team member should commit to and be willing to carry out the work.

“One of the reasons I’ve had so much trouble signing autographs and shaking hands in the past is because I have had a horrible condition on my hands that caused them to crack, bleed and cause me tremendous pain. And then Sue brought me an amazing group of products that virtually cured my symptoms. ?I feel compelled to tell you about this. Sometimes, something happens and you feel that you just have to share it with people. Most people -except the closest ones to me - haven’t known about the pain, embarrassment and self consciousness I have experienced associated with this condition.?
