Veja como você pode aprimorar suas habilidades de liderança em um ambiente de conferência por meio de treinamento de assertividade.

"Read the Room"!!! It is helpful if you know their history to understand their perspective. We have to remember learning goes both ways so be in the spirit of receiving knowledge as well.

While assertiveness is definitely a needed trait in leadership, I think that being open and leading by example is an even better one—especially at conferences. Assertiveness is good for negotiation, in some aspect of interpersonal communication and leadership interactions. However, to succeed at conferences you need to be a magnet. And to be a magnet you need to balance the right (I'd say small) amount of assertiveness with a good amount of charisma, active listening skills and curiosity to learn from your fellow conference attendee.

True confidence and assertiveness means owning your mistakes: -Explain what you learned from it. -Share how you intend to move forward.

Conference day(s) can be worth several “regular” days, so arrive rested, book a day off and 2 hrs of follow up after, and make a plan. Know who is (a) presenting, (b) attending, (b) sponsoring, and (d) organizing + make a shortlist of “must” and “would like to meet”. Next, get to know the staff; they’ll help you meet your shortlist. If speaking, frequent the speakers’ lounge and events! Importantly, connect on issues, be curious, and build rapport. As a default, reserve your pitch for the follow-up call! And meet as many people as you can manage. The better the conference, the more likely they are to be interesting/valuable. Importantly: networking is in the follow up. See more on that separately.

Following up is THE way to maximize benefits of attending or presenting at conferences, and yet rarely done! BEFORE: 1 Connect with ALL in speaker emails. 2 Send personalized LinkedIn invites to all on your shortlist. 3 Reserve 2 hrs within 2 days of the conference for follow-up. DURING: 4 Get as many cards as you can. 5 If scanning within LinkedIn app, take a photo/screenshot of their “card” or you may forget to follow up. 6 Note unique points of connection with all. 7 Connect with as many on your shortlist as possible, using the conference app if there. AFTER. 8 Follow up with ALL, on and off your shortlist, even if just, “It’s great to connect. Looking forward to witnessing your progress.” 9 Add ALL emails to your circulation list.
