COLUMBIA, SC , July 28, 2017 (Newswire.com) - Ampersand Associates’ Director of Operations discussed an upcoming conference and the team member who will be attending with her. She also shared business travel strategies.
“I’m looking forward to the leadership event, which will be held in Dallas, Texas,” said Jessica, Ampersand Associates’ Director. “My colleague, Majid, will accompany me. He’s really proven himself to be a valuable member of our team, and is turning into my right hand in the business. He’s taking on more responsibility every day.”
"The networking aspect of the event will shine a light on how large our industry is; new connections are perhaps the most valuable things we will gain from the gathering."
Jessica, Director
Jessica indicated that the conference is a great opportunity for Majid to enhance his skill set. The event has a full agenda, with workshops and presentations on best industry practices. Subjects of discussion include market trends, consumer psychology, leadership development, team building, and more.
“Majid will grow because of these sessions,” Jessica stated. “He’ll even learn about the interview and hiring processes, and he’ll get to meet a lot of influential people. The networking aspect of the event will shine a light on how large our industry is; new connections are perhaps the most valuable things we will gain from the gathering.”
When explaining how she selected someone from the Ampersand Associates organization to go with her to the event, Jessica noted that her decision was grounded in merit. Instead of extending an invitation based on seniority, she opted to go with the hardest worker in her team. The transparent nature of the company culture clearly reflects Majid’s contributions. For her, it was an easy pick.
Ampersand Associates’ Director Discusses Techniques for Successful Business Travel
“The travel experience itself is a source of learning,” Jessica continued. “With the possibilities of traffic jams, delayed flights, lost luggage, and the need to navigate unfamiliar places, travel really strengthens problem-solving skills and patience. That’s not to say I don’t want Ampersand Associates’ excursions to run as smoothly as possible, however. Prior to every trip, I remind my colleagues to employ certain strategies.”
Thorough planning is among Jessica’s travel-related mainstays. She encourages her colleagues to confirm reservations, review routes and transportation options between airports and hotels, double-check dates, and check on all other logistical matters. She also reminds her people to pack strategically, taking only the essentials and fitting them into carry-on bags if possible. “Of course, I also want my team to have fun during every trip,” she concluded. “There’s always time for some relaxation and a few extracurricular activities wherever we go!”
