Need help getting the approval to attend?

Let’s face it..

When you’re working for someone else, it’s hard to ask permission to spend their money, especially when it comes to attending a conference. The ticket cost, airfare, hotel, and other expenses start to add up in your boss’ head before you can mutter the words, “Can I go?”

We’ve got some tips to help you get that approval to register from your manager!

Need a taste of what we will be talking about at CUE? Check out this TEDx talk from Justine Constantine. From a combat veteran, published author, leadership expert, and inspirational speaker comes a story of courage, injury, resilience, and triumph. Justin Constantine is a driving force in the Post-9/11 veteran community, and he demonstrates that we are all stronger than we think we are.
