The shortcut that wasn't actually shorter. The money we could have saved if we'd just asked the right person one question first.Mistakes Were Made is a different kind of networking event, built around the business and financial lessons we usually learn the hard way.We'll kick things off with The Expensive Mistakes Panel, featuring three business leaders.Instead of presentations and sales pitches, we're asking our panelists to share stories, including:What's an expensive mistake you've watched someone make that could have been prevented by one conversation?We'll talk about costly assumptions, decisions people wish they could redo, warning signs that get ignored, and those moments when a professional thinks, "I really wish you'd called me six months ago."Then It's Your Turn: Expensive Mistakes BINGOAfter the panel, we're turning the conversation over to the room.Expensive Mistakes BINGO takes networking beyond “So, what do you do?” with conversation starters designed to get people swapping stories, sharing lessons learned, and making new connections.Grab a card, work the room, and see how many expensive mistakes you can find, preferably without having to make them yourself.Come for the mistakes. Leave with better connections.We start promptly at 3:30 PM, so please arrive on time.RSVP today. Space is limited.
