Season 2 - Ep 5 - The Joys of Networking and wrap-up of APC Conference

The Future Focused Admin

In this latest episode of The Future Focused Admin Podcast, we’re discussing the Joys of Networking and our wrap-up of the 2024 APC Conference we attended in October at the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center. We wanted to reflect on our time at the conference. This is a much lighter-hearted episode than our other ones as we wanted to take the time to celebrate the joys of networking, the fun of meeting fellow admins from around the world in person, and the meaningful connections we made. Tune in as we share our favorite moments, key takeaways, and the value of building a strong network within the admin profession.
