New Director Academy in Sacramento

[cmdtrgd]

Is anyone else going? A sister director and I are driving from Boise so we will be checking into the hotel tomorrow night.

I went to the very first one in Maryland last year. You will learn SO much! I highly recommend going to every new director!!

 

[cmdtrgd]

Beth - any suggestions on how to get the most out of it? Did you have the pre-academy homework, too?

 

[BethCooks4U]

Yes. We did have pre-homework.

Take good notes, don't be shy (network and share), do the follow-up work!

Oh, and HAVE FUN!

 

[SilverCeladon]

How fun! I can't go but I'm only 30 miles south of Sacramento. Have fun!

I'm going, but I don't think I got any pre academy homework. Oh nevermind, I am going to the Directors academy, sure hope we didn't have homework

 

[cmdtrgd]

Shana - the New Director Academy has pre-homework. The Director Training Day (Thursday) may not.

 

[Kitchen2u]

I'll see you there!

Ginny

Working on my homework right now...LOL

 

[Kitchen2u]

Kate ~

Are you going to the Director Training Day too? I am! I live in Elk Grove (like 20 minutes from the hotel ~ maybe my roomie and you two can have dinner (since we're on our own Friday night)

I'm not going to the Director Training yet. I didn't want to get overwhelmed and wanted NDA first. Plus, it gives me another reason to go to a great training next year!I'll pm you with my cell number - we should be getting in around 9, maybe too late for dinner, but we should be available for breakfast the next day.

Shana - the New Director Academy has pre-homework. The Director Training Day (Thursday) may not.

Thank you for the clarification, I had myself really confussed. I thought I was going to have to miss it, since I didn't have child care. Then that changed so I just signed up on the phone yesterday. Thought perhaps they had forgotten to tell me something.

 

[Kitchen2u]

Director Training Day (Thurs in Sacramento) does not have homework...just New Director Academy in Sac on Fri/Sat

See you tomorrow Shanna?

Ginny

 

[ShanaSmith]

I will be there. I was just doing my mapquest to see what time I have to leave my house in the morning. Only a 70 minute drive... hopefully!

 

[Kitchen2u]

If you're coming up Hwy 99...allow for extra time from about Elk Grove to Sacramento...gets backed up during commute traffic

[cmdtrgd]

OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!! It was TOTALLY FABULOUS!Ginny was SO COOL, too!

 

[Kitchen2u]

Ahhh thanks Kate ~ it was so cool meeting you, Sharie and Shana (the day before on Director's Training Day) ~ pretty cool faces to names!

After 3 days of training . . .
my brain HURTS!

So what you implemented Kate?

When did you get home? I was anxious ~ all of you Directors traveling back home . . . ummm, I got home Sat at 4:30? Something like that.

Went to bed HECKA early ~ had to rest the brain and body!

Isn't Ginny the greatest?!?! I had fun hanging out with her in SF!

 

[cmdtrgd]

Ginny - thanks for worrying about us. We planned to eat dinner in Reno and totally missed it. We were talking too much, I think. Anyhoo, we ate in Winnemucca at about 9:30 and decided to keep going. We stopped at about midnight and slept in the car for a few hours. Sherry only planned about a 15 minute nap so she would be refreshed, but apparently we needed more! We drove until about 5 and slept a bit more. I got into Boise around 7am your time and Sherry took a pit stop at my house and then kept on going. I am sure she got there, but I haven't heard yet. I usually turn my phone off on Sunday - time with hubby!

Haven't implemented anything yet, but I am setting up weekly phone calls this week. I figured I would treat all my downline as if they were still in their 90 days and go through the training calls in the guide. Then, if I have a hard time getting ahold of them (uncoachable right now) or they decide they don't want it weekly, then we'll go from there. I am also doing the target goal setting in those calls - how can I help them if I don't know exactly what they want?!?Gnite!
