1 Choose the right conference

Not all HR conferences are created equal. Some are more focused on specific topics, such as talent acquisition, diversity and inclusion, or employee engagement. Others are more general and cover a wide range of HR issues. Depending on your interests, needs, and objectives, you should select the conference that best suits you. Do some research on the agenda, the speakers, the sponsors, and the attendees of the conference you're considering. Look for opportunities to learn from experts, meet potential mentors, partners, or clients, and join relevant discussions and workshops.

2 Prepare in advance

Don't wait until the last minute to plan your conference trip. You should start preparing at least a few weeks before the event. To get ready, set your goals for attending the conference and be specific and realistic about them. Make sure your online presence and contact information are up to date, and do some research on who will be speaking, presenting, or exhibiting at the conference. Reach out to the ones that interest you most and start building rapport before the event. Finally, review the conference agenda and prioritize sessions, workshops, or activities that align with your goals and interests. However, make sure to leave some room for flexibility in case something unexpected catches your attention.

3 Be proactive and engaging

Once you're at the conference, don't be shy or passive. You need to make an effort to interact with other attendees, speakers, and exhibitors. Arrive early and stay late to mingle with other participants before and after the sessions. Introduce yourself, ask questions, share opinions, or exchange cards. Participate actively in the sessions by asking questions, making comments, or offering feedback. Join live polls, surveys, or quizzes that some sessions might have. Additionally, don't forget to use the conference hashtag, handle, or app to share your thoughts, insights, or photos from the event; follow, like, comment, or retweet what other attendees are posting in order to increase your visibility, credibility, and engagement. By doing all these things you will be able to demonstrate your interest and enthusiasm as well as find out what others are saying or doing at the conference.

4 Follow up and stay in touch

The conference may be over, but your networking is not. To make the most of your conference experience and turn it into a lasting and rewarding relationship, you need to maintain and nurture the connections you made at the event. Within a day or two after the conference, send a personalized email or message to the people you met and thank them for their time, advice, or conversation. Connect with them on LinkedIn and include a brief note reminding them who you are and how you met. Additionally, don't let your contacts go cold or forget about you; stay in touch with them regularly by sending them useful articles, podcasts, or webinars related to their interests or challenges. Showing interest, providing value, and building trust will help you make the most of your conference experience.
