13 I only went because several colleagues who'd been before said how great it was. To be honest, I usually get bored at these events. Instead of just listening to someone talking, I'd rather be doing something. But as everyone had recommended it, I had high hopes it'd be good, and I wasn't disappointed. I found the speaker really entertaining. The thing was, he couldn't cover everything. They should have allowed a full day. 14 I know you're supposed to pick up lots of new ideas at these seminars and I suppose it was useful. I did get a few ideas, which is just as well because now I've got to give a talk to staff on the same topic. What I was actually hoping for, though, was to be able to make the most of the opportunity in other ways, too. As some of the other participants I networked with may well become major clients. I'd definitely go again. 15 The seminar was held in a really smart hotel. I did wonder how much my company was having to pay for me to attend. I hope they think it was worth sending me along. I tried to take lots of notes just in case my manager asked me to write a report about it afterwards. I must admit, though, I didn't write much because although the speaker was highly entertaining, I couldn't exactly say I learnt anything new. Shame, really. 16 Well, what we covered was all really important stuff, some of which was mainly common sense. And I'll certainly be trying out the ideas I picked up. The trouble was, I know the speaker's someone quite well known. He's even had a book in the best-seller list. But his style wasn't exactly entertaining. I noticed that a few of the other participants looked rather fed up, too. I was just glad that it was only a half-day event. 17 I usually enjoy seminars. It's a chance to get away from the office, and there's the opportunity to share experiences. I know these events aren't cheap, especially when the speaker's somebody well known. At this particular seminar I went to, the speaker was unknown so I was unsure how good it would be, but I found it really useful. It gave me new ideas on selling techniques, which I've already started using with some success. So I'd say it was well worth the fee.
