Dear ,

I would like to attend PeopleSoft RECONNECT, July 18-20, 2017. I am confident that attending this conference will benefit how I perform my job, as the knowledge I will gain aligns directly to the priorities of our team . Many of the presentations offer time- and money- saving solutions for our product and I’ll be able to hear success stories from other users like me!

In three days, I’ll have access to:  150+ deep-dive sessions selected by a PeopleSoft customer content committee.  An estimated 400+ PeopleSoft peers from more than 150 companies to network and share ideas/best practices with.  Special Interest Group meetings and roundtable discussions

I’ll learn how to make the most of our current PeopleSoft investment to increase our staff’s productivity and cut costs. A few of the sessions I plan to attend include:

  

I have chosen these sessions because they are pertinent to my job function and I think they will offer a new and greater understanding of what I’m working on. I also plan to build new business relationships and share best practices with other attendees working on the same priorities through networking opportunities and Special Interest Group meetings. I have also enclosed an agenda that I built using the customized agenda tool and focusing on our key priorities.

I reviewed the exhibitor list and there are a number of vendors participating that I plan to evaluate for future use. In addition to the Exhibitor Showcase and product demonstrations, I plan on scheduling private vendor briefings onsite with .

Other staff members in our organization will benefit as well, as I will meet with the team when I return and circulate a detailed and actionable conference report. I’ll have full access to view all RECONNECT presentation slide decks upon return – perfect for reviewing key highlights with the team.

I sincerely hope that I’m given the opportunity to attend RECONNECT, as I’m confident in the significant return we will receive for the small investment.

Thank you in advance for consideration of this opportunity.
