Dear Reader,
Welcome to today’s quick insights session here at Calibre!
Today our quick insights discussion will revolve around the importance of modern-day office workers attending business events. The source of inspiration for this article, has come from our recent visit at Orgatec, Germany combined with an insightful article we came across by UrbanNetwork on ‘7 reasons why networking events are important for your business’. At Calibre, we strongly believe that attending industry events is greatly vital for business success.
Let’s now go through some of our top favourite points from the UrbanNetwork article, which we also firmly agree with too….
Top Reason 1: offers an opportunity to interact face-to-face with business leaders
Face-to-face communication will always be one of the most effective ways of speaking with company stakeholders, no matter how modern and tech-led corporations become. Instead of always sitting around a conference table and carrying out video conference calls to important business professionals, we think a lot more can be learnt and taken on board when you speak to someone on a face-to-face basis. Remember, new learnings can potentially lead to new opportunities for your business so try to make use of as many business events as possible.
Top Reason 2: gives you a chance to try out new ways of learning
Attending business events also allows staff members to try out new ways of learning and get fresh ideas for your organisation rather than always relying on webinars, podcasts, online articles, etc. In a way, it forces you to break away from your usual comfort zones and literally detach yourself from your office desks for a short while. The reality unfortunately is, that being stuck to your office chairs can prevent you to widen your knowledge and input new ideas to the business. That’s not what you want to happen right?!
Top Reason 3: gives you the opportunity to network with others in a more social context
Business events also give professionals a chance to mingle with like-minded industrialists in a more relaxed and social environment. You can exchange brilliant ideas, hand out your business cards and create useful connections while also having a blast at the event. These are all superb ways of growing your business further.
To Conclude:
To recap, we think it’s a fantastic idea for professionals to make use of business events for a variety of reasons. There are no doubt several components that assist towards creating a successful business and making an effort to go to business events is one of them.
