What is the purpose of a meeting, if not to meet with people (subject matter experts, peers, community members and customers),and if that is the primary purpose of an event shouldn’t it be the lens through which we design experiences that matter for our participants, stakeholders, clients and organizations? . . .

And when we’re dependent on others outside our strict authority, our ability to influence across the organization becomes critical to our ability to be successful. In this conversation, we’ll talk about what effective influence looks like, how we cultivate our network to expand our influence across the organization, and what we do when our attempts at influence fall short. . . .
