For this episode, you’re joining me “Inside the Greenroom” on the road. This past week, I was at an amazing event, CADREcon in the DC area and got a chance to sit down with several of the speakers PLUS the event host, Derek Coburn. There are lots of gold nuggets in this episode – but what stands out the most is HOW to create incredible events. I was blown away with the experience Derek created at CADREcon, so we dove into how he made it happen.
