Seven Conference

Its the big conference tomorrow, really excited about it and also a little nervous.
Looking forward to listening to some really good speakers for example Lord Kirkham, Britain’s leading furniture tycoon and executive Chairman of DFS. Who would have thought me mixing in a room with Lords. Will be good to hear what they have to say about the world of business and see if i can pick up any tips.
I was never any good at school hence the reason i have no qualifactions but one thing i was really good at was listening and learning from others.
Ive also been told that there will be a photo shoot at dinner time with all of the finalists and i have to take a prop that either represents the business or me, i can only think of phones and computers, i cant exactly take a butler with me to show the exceptional customer service that we offer, well I could but that means i will have a butler following me about all day and no doubt ill have to buy his drinks, on the up side at least he will go to the bar.
Its a black tie dinner on the night, must remember to pick my suit up from the dry cleaners this time, last time at the north east business awards i forgot to collect my dinner suit from the dry cleaners and had to drag a poor man from his tea to travel 1/2 hour to open the shop for me.
The main thing of the day for me is networking, who can i speak too, who will be the next big deal for Cornerstone.
One thing ive learned through my years its all about who you know and who they know and networking is the best way for new contacts.
Anyway im sure it will be great and to also meet the other finalists, ill update how things went on Friday
