Accelerate learning and build a shared vision by attending with your senior leadership team

It’s never been more critical to make the most of an opportunity to bring your senior leadership team together and strategize about what comes next.

Over the next year, CIOs, IT executives and their teams will need to leverage all areas of IT to anticipate changes, shift quickly in response and then accelerate transformation. Fundamental to this success will be the ability for you to work side by side with your direct reports to create a shared knowledge and an aligned vision.

Tips for attending the conference with your senior leadership team

Align your vision as you forge strong relationships and a deeper, shared understanding with your direct reports to help drive your strategies forward.

  • Have a team-planning meeting to set key objectives.
  • Decide a strategy for how to divide and conquer the agenda (which sessions you attend collectively could be as important).
  • Agree on how you will share key lessons.
  • Create a document repository for notes, slides, etc., on Google Drive or other file-sharing platform.
  • Add your team to your expert one-on-one meetings.
  • Create a Microsoft Teams/Slack/Google Hangout channel to stay in touch during the conference.
  • Share sessions with your direct reports — make notes of times they would find especially helpful.
  • Make a plan to share a coffee or lunch break together as a team.
  • Set up a.m. or p.m. meetings to discuss what you hope to learn, what you did learn, and stay connected.
  • Set up a meeting to review key take-aways and create an action plan for how you will apply what you have learned. What are you going to start doing/stop doing/do differently as a result of what you have learned?
  • Connect on LinkedIn with any peers you met during the conference.
  • Schedule a follow-up meeting with any exhibitors that piqued your interest (through the Gartner Conference Navigator).

The Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo™ conference is a fantastic way to meet and learn about new technologies from peers and industry leaders. Keynotes are inspiring and give you the boost to accomplish great things!
