　　Anybody running a company knows that a well planned conference can greatly improve performance of that business. The main reason for this is that it takes your employees away from the daily workplace and offers them somewhere fresh for a short time. However. unless the conference is well thought out it will not have the best results and you will have wasted a great deal of money. Here are some tips for you.

　　The first step is to find the right place. Can your employees easily reach the conference center? Is it near a railway station? Is it close to a good. fast road? Has it plenty of suitable parking space? If you are going to choose a hotel, then perhaps the hotel has cheaper rates at weekends or, if it is in a popular tourist area. midweek rates may be cheaper. Furthermore, you need to think whether there is a bathroom. After a day's meeting. maybe your employees would like to have a hot water bath. Or maybe there arc other needs to satisfy depending on your employees' taste.

　　Another important requirement is food and drink. Breakfast is a time when people can relax before work begins. but you may not want a long break for lunch in the middle of the day. Buffet lunches are very popular for this reason. Then there is dinner, which most employees consider a reward for a day's hard work!

　　Whatever your needs are, it is essential to think ahead if you want a successful conference.

I said, " What 　40 in your way?" She answered, "I have six kids, and no one can 　41 　them while I'm away." I asked "Who would help this woman while she gets some 　42 at school?" Another woman said "I got kids, too, but I could do that." So the woman went to school.
