How to ask your boss to send you to camp

Happy Humpday Y'all! We're a little over 2 weeks away from Camp OrgOrg, the most amazing, first-of-it's-kind conference curated specifically for office superstars- admins, office managers, executive assistants, HR professionals, & event planners. Tickets are still on sale, and we're confident all attendees will walk away with actionable ideas and advice they can immediately implement in their daily work lives. This is truly one of the best and most unique learning and development opportunities for folks in our space. On that note, we wanted to provide a few tips and tricks for asking work to foot the bill. 

1. Come with data points. Highlight keywords in the agenda so you can easily show your manager what you'll be learning. Print out short bios of keynote speakers from Linkedin to further highlight the value this conference will bring to you. 

2. List the top 3 reasons you'd like to attend. Learning new skills that will help with a project that was just assigned to you, learning from others experiences, networking opportunities, being able to return to work with fresh eyes and new ideas. 

The benefits to attending a conference are endless, our friends at Eden recently did a blog post on some if you need inspiration. 

3. Have a follow-up email with concise information and a link to the conference at the ready. Don't make your boss go digging around on the internet after your chat, shoot over a concise, yet detailed email covering the highlights you spoke about.

We can't wait to see you at Camp!!
