Convince Your Boss
[Enter Manager’s Name],
I would like your approval to attend Engineering News-Record’s Emerging Leaders Forum on March 18-20, 2024, in Chicago, IL as an investment in my career and the future of our company.
With a sharp focus on helping early and mid-career professionals like me to thrive in a rapidly changing business landscape, this is not your typical conference. Arguably, no one knows the AEC industry like ENR, whose editorial team prepared an informative program where I will learn about the strategies that drive the most successful businesses of our time.
While attending this event I will learn from visionary keynotes, gain new perspectives from panel discussions and participate in small group learning to strengthen my skills in project management, teambuilding and leadership, and bring back ideas that can increase our firm’s productivity and intelligence.
Between the content presented, networking opportunities with other attendees like myself, and the chance to meet ENR’s 2024 National Top 20 Under 40 winners, this event will be an incentive to be more productive than ever.
Below is the approximate cost of attending for your review:
Hotel: $139/night for [#] nights
Registration: $450
Meals: $ (all meals except dinners are included in the registration fee)
Airfare: $
Total: $
Our company’s presence at this event represents a valuable opportunity to learn strategies for project success and connect with potential vendors, suppliers, and customers. Please let me know if you have any questions, and thank you in advance for your support of my professional development.
Sincerely,[Your name]
