If you were at the recent Global Conference—or even a past one—I’d love to hear what you learned from the experience. For me, one of the biggest lessons was realizing I didn’t prepare enough to make the most of the networking opportunities.

I can definitely relate to that. I attended a similar conference before and had the same realization—networking is where most of the real value comes from, but it’s easy to overlook if you’re not prepared. One thing that helped me afterward was setting clear goals before attending (like who I wanted to meet or topics I wanted to discuss). It made conversations more meaningful instead of just casual exchanges. Link: https://www.projectmanagement.com/discussi...al-summit-2025/ 2v2 io
