The Benefits of Attending Professional Development Events and How Cloud Security Summit Delivers On Them

The role of a conference, according to The Training Associates, is to “gather like-minded individuals from across the country or across the globe, to learn, discuss thoughts, network, share ideas, create new ideas, and to ignite motivation.” 

This global leader in learning and development lists four main benefits of attending professional development events, and we couldn’t agree more with its assessment. Here are its top four benefits, and how the Brivo and Eagle Eye Networks 2021 Cloud Security Summit lives up to them. 

Benefit #1

Fresh Perspective –  Author of “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People,” Dr. Stephen Covey once said, “We must never become too busy sawing to take time to sharpen the saw.” In other words, sometimes we have to step away from the work to do better work. 

2021 Cloud Security Summit 

The Summit agenda offers opportunities for everyone on the team to sharpen their saw, featuring Executive, Sales, and Technical tracks, in addition to powerful best practices to maximize your business growth.

We’ll also explore trends in the security industry, and share new tools and resources to propel your business forward. Thought-provoking speakers will provide insights to help you capitalize on your full business potential.

Benefit #2

Networking – Developing a strong professional network has stalled for all of us during off-and-on COVID-dictated lockdowns since early 2020. Let’s face it, it’s hard to form and nurture business relationships when you’re isolated at home. 

However, according to Harvard Business Review, “… research shows that professional networks lead to more job and business opportunities, broader and deeper knowledge, improved capacity to innovate, faster advancement, and greater status and authority.”

From breakfast on the patio of our venue, the Hyatt Regency Lost Pines Resort and Spa, to cocktail hours, dinners, and live music on the lawn, there are plenty of opportunities for attendees to network, making and fostering valuable professional contacts.

Benefit #3

Learning – Lifelong learning helps develop our abilities, opens our minds, increases our wisdom, and makes us more adaptable. From a business perspective, it helps us grow and prosper. And, we all learn differently, so a conference setting is ideal, because it offers a variety of learning formats. 

2021 Cloud Security Summit

Whether you’re a visual, verbal, physical, or social learner, we have you covered. Because the Summit agenda includes keynotes, general sessions, interactive Q&As, breakout tracks for specific job roles, and networking events like Industry Trivia and Poker – a mix of environments designed to not only educate, but also engage, enable, and entertain. 

Benefit #4

Spark New Ideas – Being surrounded by industry experts and leaders is inspirational, and can breathe new life into the everyday monotony. And, hearing about peers’ challenges and victories can inspire fresh approaches, positively impacting your business.
