How do you get opportunities to speak on panels? Is it based on networking?

I think it depends on the panel. Some you can pay to be a speaker, others you have to be invited. In that case, yes, it's all about the networking and who you know.

Networking or if you work for a company that is hosting a panel, I think you can ask depending on the company. Some panel are hosted by collectives - so maybe joining to network will open those avenues.

Great question. Connect w/ your comms team proactively sharing your bio. Share where you’d like to speak and seek their partnership with pursuing. They should be able to provide recommendations on how to enhance your profile visibility to land a spot.

I've always wondered about this too. Thank you for asking this

I'm a marketer and I'm having a hard time getting my clients to listen to me.

I have been in marketing for 10 years now. I've worked with hundreds of clients and have been able to increase their sales by over $1 million each year.

But every time I go into a meeting with a new client, they ignore everything I say. They just want to talk about their product. They don't seem interested in learning how to market it better.

My partner and I are looking to move from NYC to Dallas in 2022. I’m in big law and he is a public interest lawyer. I can easily transfer within my firm, but he’s having trouble pinning down public interest opportunities in Dallas. It seems like they’re less available than NYC, but also not sure if we just aren’t looking in the right places. He currently does housing work but is passionate about civil rights and public benefits generally. Any tips on how to come by public interest opportunities?

Help,I started a new career n the events industry and I think I have to quit! The person I report to is so disorganized and there are no other managers in the office to direct day to day operations of our department. On day 2 I was asked to go to a job site and perform a 12 hour day without any training, safety equipment or tools. On day 3 I was asked back to site to do general labor! I ended cutting my hand on an exacto knife and there was no first aid! Is this normal?
