Have you noticed that people who attend conferences on multiple days
"expect" to sit with the same people they work with and sit at the same table
every day? One recommendation I give to coordinators of programs (but only
one has taken me up so far) is STRONGLY ENCOURAGING that people who attend
conferences sit with a specialty other than their own - it's amazing
what you can learn at lunchtime or in breaks! We handed out colored
stickers to the different specialties and encouraged them to "make a rainbow" at
their table.
~~ I love this. At a recent New York LCA conference, I ended up sitting
with an RN/IBCLC who works diligently in a hospital with really poor
breastfeeding initiation and duration, and high levels of peripartum interventions.
It was so helpful to get her take on all of it, and to learn we were all
on the same page trying to help moms. She reviewed some common
interventions and how she saw them affecting moms and babies and that helped us a lot
in our LLL work and home consults-- as IBCLCs-work.
Peace,
Judy
