Conference proposals are a different writing beast than articles or columns or papers. Don’t be coy. Don’t give us a promise. Tell us the problems and what we will learn.
Johanna Rothman “Writing Advice for Conference Proposals”
Good advice from Johanna Rothman on conference proposal writing.
Giving back to the profession, sharing best practices and lessons is an important part of being an ethical practioner, and also a great way to build your career. Preparing and speaking at a conference is also a great way to build connections with the material and to stretch in order to build expertise.
In 2019 I’m speaking at 4 conferences:
- ASQ Lean and Six Sigma Conference “Training as Part of Lean Change Management” in March
- ASQ BOSCON “Knowledge management & effective change management” in April
- ASQ World Conference on Quality and Improvement “Knowledge Enables Change” in May
- 2019 Northeast Lean Conference in October
In addition, I tend to speak at a variety of internal events and provide a ton of training.
I hope to run into some of you at these events next year.
