Are coaching conferences / summits important in your coach development?

This week we want to know your thoughts and experiences about coaching conferences and summits.  Nowadays, more and more coaching information seems to be going up online, so is there still a place for physical conferences?

Conferences can often be costly for both the organiser and the attendee, but can provide a unique experience and a fantastic learning environment.  Being able to listen directly to an expert in a particular field, or network with your peers can provide an invaluable learning opportunity – but is the effort of delivering and attending worth it?

Discussion:

  • When was the last time you attended a conference?
  • What do you learn / develop because of conference that you can’t anywhere else?
  • Would you like to attend more, but can’t because of time and money?
  • Do you wish your sport had more of them?
