The 360° Protocol Professional

Join us for this special professional development session, presented by Global Center for Protocol Development. This session will focus on: 

• Identifying the three capability zones (technical expertise, supporting/soft-skill depth, and strategic leadership) that define a future-ready protocol professional.
• Illustrating how broadened traits (decision-making, program management, teamwork, data fluency, etc.) accelerate promotion inside protocol offices and raise marketability outside the field.
• Guiding attendees through a self-development challenge to pick one technical, one leadership, and one supporting skill to pursue in the next six months.
• Outline steps for leveraging protocol experience into adjacent careers (events, corporate relations, customer experience, international business, etc.).

Participants may submit questions in advance while registering to be sure they are addressed.
