Reminder: National Conference Secrecy

[chefann]

Wave 1 starts in just a few days, so it's a good time for a reminder about the information that will be shared. Consultants who have been to conference will already know this, but those who haven't, don't.

Top brass from Home Office swear all conference attendees to secrecy. That ban is lifted AFTER the final wave is over.

DO NOT share Conference announcements on this board, or anywhere.
DO NOT post on this board that "I know the announcements - contact me!"

Hearing the announcements from stage is one of the best parts of conference, and is a perk of attending. Don't dilute that perk by telling non-attendees what you heard. The Special Edition newsletter, which includes all the announcements, will be available shortly after Wave 3 ends. Non-attendees will be able to get the info then.

Deb and Greg will allow us to post info on the last day of Wave 3, usually after the final general session is in progress so that any Wave 3-ers who have been checking the board don't see something they don't know yet. They monitor the board for this info. Premature posting may result in deletion of your post, and possible disciplinary action.

Thanks Ann! I know I for one would be SOOO disappointed to hear things from Wave 1 since I am in Wave 2! I am so excited to go and consider this a privilege. Although some people can't attend because of family reasons, health reasons, etc., that still is no reason to violate something our Company has asked us not to share!

I grew up in Oak Ridge, TN where they built parts for the Atomic Bomb. My father worked as a Safety Engineer. They were sworn to secrecy about their job and everything they did and saw. Those men and women would NEVER think to reveal those secrets because their employer told them not to do so!

That said, I am so excited to meet all of my sister/brother Cheffers starting Sunday! Let's have a blast!!
