Remember that last time you had a great feeling at the end of a project? Do you have a great story to tell about overcoming the odds to deliver a course? Do you have some secret sauce that will help others be successful? There is someone, somewhere who can benefit from your experience and insights. Conferences and webinars are the easiest way to get the word out, and you should be sharing your hard-won know-how.

This session will give practical insights into writing successful conference speaking proposals, including a peek behind the scenes of TOC’s own proposal selection process. We’ll review the benefits for you, your brand, and your agency and discuss ways to justify these kinds of professional development activities to your boss. Attendees of this session will leave with a draft their own speaking proposal.

In this webinar, we will:

• Review practical insights for writing winning proposals
• Explain the proposal selection process
• Describe the benefits of becoming a speaker and how to justify this as a professional development activity to your management

This program covers topics in the Career Development track.
