"How can I create goals if I don't have access to data?" Setting goals without data? Sounds like a classic puzzle we hear about all the time during our first office hour for the PCMA Event Measurement and Analytics course. Our kickoff session this cohort turned into what I'd lovingly call a group therapy session for event organizers dealing with data woes. It's a common scene: folks feeling a bit lost because they're missing that crucial piece of the puzzle - data. If this is hitting close to home, just know you're definitely not alone in this boat! But here's the kicker: even if data is playing hard to get, setting those goals is still super important. Why? Because it gives your event purpose and direction, aligning it with your organization's bigger picture. 🌟 So, how do you make your goals measurable, even with limited data? Start simple. If your objective is brand awareness, count social media mentions. Networking event? Track the number of connections made. Every goal should answer the big question: "What's the point?" And trust me, there always is one. Remember, a goal without a plan is just a wish. And in the event world, we don't rely on wishes; we craft strategies. Let's make our events impactful, one measurable goal at a time. 🚀 #EventPlanning #GoalSetting #MakeItCount ***Our course walks you through step-by-step on how to effectively use data to better your organization, your event, and you. There's still time to register for this cohort. - https://lnkd.in/dbevwbTV PCMA Event Leadership Institute PCMA

Today, I want to share a thought that has been resonating with me lately – the incredible shift from viewing our daily work as a "have to" obligation to recognizing it as a "get to" privilege, especially when fortunate enough to be a part of an exceptional company. 🚀 It's all about perspective! Instead of waking up with the mindset of "I have to go to work," let's reframe it as "I get to contribute my skills and passions to an amazing company." How lucky are we to be part of a team that values our expertise and trusts us to make meaningful contributions? Every day offers a fresh chance to learn, grow, and make a positive impact. 🌍 Working for a remarkable company isn't just about the paycheck – it's about the opportunities for personal and professional development, the chance to collaborate with brilliant minds, and the satisfaction of being a part of something bigger than ourselves. When we shift from "have to" to "get to," our energy transforms. We become more engaged, creative, and enthusiastic about our work. 🌈 Let's celebrate the privilege of waking up each day to make a difference. Let's appreciate the challenges as opportunities to learn and the victories as results of our hard work. Let's strive to infuse positivity and passion into every task we undertake, inspiring not only ourselves but those around us as well. 🙌 So, here's to a mindset shift! Let's embrace each day with gratitude and enthusiasm for the chance to work with a team that values our contributions. Let's make the most of our "get to" mentality and create a ripple effect of positivity in our workplace and beyond. I'd love to hear your thoughts on this – how do you cultivate a "get to" mindset? Feel free to share your insights in the comments below. Together, let's inspire a culture where everyone recognizes the privilege of working for a great company! I am proud to say that I GET TO work for one of the best companies in Florida! Here's to many more years together, OMNICOMMANDER! Stay inspired and keep shining brightly! ✨ #PositiveMindset #GratitudeAtWork #CareerReflections #WorkplaceInspiration #ProfessionalGrowth #WTB

The onboarding function in enterprise software is mission critical to success. So many software sales wins are lost in the poor onboarding journeys and customer success targets not being met. This results in transient customers engagement and shows up in lower net revenue retention and high churn. Like Foundation Capital's Ashu Garg highlighted in his monthly blog to B2B AI/SaaS founders, software sales is about "selling promotions" not selling features. A flawless post sale onboarding journey is the bridge between "selling promotions" and delivering them Amar Chokhawala Rachel Lyubovitzky
