Live Tweets of Ding! Happens

This past weekend I did a keynote for the National Association for Court Management. A few people “live tweeted” the speech, and I took a look at the Tweets afterward. It is pretty interesting to see what other people pull out of your speech as the most “Tweet-worthy.”

I have listed all the tweets regarding my speech below. This is basically a summary of my main points from my audience’s perspective. You might find some useful lessons and solid reminders to help you react when Ding Happens. The Tweets are listed chronologically (though my favorite is, I am crying so hard I cant tweet. So funny.).

Note #1: If any of the Tweets jump out at you as something you would like more info on, let me know in the comments or email me and I will write a future blog post on it!
