You’ve made it through another great stretch of sessions — now take a breath, grab something to snack on, and get back out there. This break is your second wind, and not just physically. Think of it as a reset: new energy, new conversations, new opportunities. You’ve already warmed up at the last break — now go a little deeper. Skip the small talk and ask something real. The people around you are facing the same industry challenges, celebrating the same wins, and building the same kinds of teams you are. Find your people. Then connect on the conference app so you can keep the conversation going long after the conference ends.
Go a little deeper this time — try one of these:
• “What’s one thing you’ve heard this week that you’re going to bring back to your team?”
• “What does your inspection or permitting process look like — and what would you change if you could?”
• “Who’s someone here I absolutely need to meet before this conference is over?”
• “If you could wave a magic wand and fix one thing about how the Florida Building Code is enforced, what would it be?”
• “I don’t think we’ve met yet — I’m [name]. Let’s connect on the app before we head back in!”
The snacks are just the excuse to be here. The real reason is the person standing next to you.
