Is one of your 2022 goals to grow your skills, meet industry professionals or learn new ways of doing business? We’ve got all three of those in spades at ACA International’s IGNITE 2022 conference March 16-18, at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, and we want to see you there!
If you are interested in attending but need help convincing your manager to send you, we’ve prepared a template letter for this event that you can personalize to help you make your case. It walks you through how to calculate the total cost to your organization and how to connect specific sessions to your company’s short-term and long-term goals. There are spaces in the letter where you can add names of colleagues in the industry you know who will be attending IGNITE and sessions that you would like to attend that address specific challenges at your company. Print out the letter and bring it to a face-to-face meeting with your manager, or email it and schedule time to discuss it. For more information, visit the IGNITE website under Convince Your Boss.
When you discuss why you should attend IGNITE, you’ll need to not only be persuasive but also armed with facts on why this conference will benefit your company. Read through the agenda and highlight the sessions that would be most impactful. Here’s a cheat sheet:
