Went to a Work Conference or Trade Show? Do This Next
A work conference or trade show can be a weird mix of exhausting and exhilarating. Many events mix a day packed with events with an evening filled with cocktail parties, dinners, and informal bar gatherings. You can make new contacts, land another client, or start to lock down your next job.
That's all great, but it can leave you ready to walk off the plane and into a few days of doing nothing afterwards. And that's exactly the wrong thing to do. If you're just back from a work event, now's the time to do a postmortem on the show, make notes on what happened, and follow up on any contacts you made (or at least make a plan to do so).
