S
mart Meetings National 3-Day Experience proved there is no place
like Nashville for starting productive business relationships. One of
the fastest-growing cities in the country was a compelling draw for
meeting professionals looking to learn new skills and meet the fresh faces at
hotels and destinations with open dates for groups. The gathering at Grand
Hyatt Nashville was an efficient way to learn tricks for doing business better,
and experience creative approaches to catering, gifting and team building.
Beat the Quiet Quit
After the last two tumultuous years, some organizations may be burnt
out, exhausted or worse. Keynote speaker Sunjay Nath shared the
secret to motivating teams to perform at higher levels by making a conscious
choice to empower the top 10% of employees. Spend more time,
energy and attention on them and neutralize the bottom 10% by not
allowing it to pull your thoughts from the desired result. That will, in turn,
shift the middle 80% of the group toward the productive state you need
to deliver the best meetings possible.
" That is counterintuitive as we naturally tend to focus on the problem,
but if, instead, you put your energy toward the people who are on board,
the others will either convert to the new way of doing business or leave.
Either way, they will no longer be a negative influence, " Nath said when
explaining his 10-80-10 rule.
Search Better
Many meeting professionals are finding themselves struggling to find their
trusted hotel partners after the great reshuffling that has happened in
the hospitality industry. To help answer the " Where has everyone gone? "
question, keynote and Intel Engine founder Sam Richter, shared tips for
searching smarter. Applying advanced Google search techniques both
helps to locate potential partners and learn more about them so you can
show up to conversations prepared. " When you can demonstrate that
you have done your research, it shows that you care, " he explained.

Love Your Authentic Story
Meeting professionals have been trained to put on a brave face for the
world, regardless of what is going on behind the scenes. But after the
last two years, learning to tell the story of what it took to overcome is
a powerful tool to move forward. Keynote Lauren Sisler bravely told her
story from promising athletic roots through tragedy to Emmy awardwinning
ESPN sports broadcaster. She lost both of her parents in a devastating
way as a freshman in college and struggled for years to come to
terms with the circumstances while all the while smiling for the cameras.
" I learned that success is often defined by defeat and our approach to
life must include viewing circumstances through a lens of purpose and
gratitude, " she said.
