Subject: Worth Summit - Professional Development Opportunity


Hello [Leader's Name],

I hope this message finds you well.

I wanted to bring to your attention an exciting opportunity for professional development: the 2024 WORTH Leadership Summit. As a representative of [Organization Name], I am keen to attend this full-day industry event, scheduled for May 13, 2024. The summit gathers women identifying leaders and their allies in recreation, tourism, and hospitality to network, learn, and develop together.

Attending this summit presents a unique chance for me to not only showcase our organization among 300+ other attendees and distinguished speakers but also to acquire new skill sets and knowledge through diverse workshop programming. These workshops cover essential topics such as leadership, career-coaching, ambition, mental health and more!

Here is a breakdown of the expenses associated with my attendance:

  • Summit Fee: $399.00 for the Early Bird rate (there is also a discount available for groups of 6 or more)

  • Accommodations: [Insert cost if applicable]

  • Transportation to and from the hotel/conference venue: [Insert cost if applicable]

I want to highlight that registering early will secure discounted rates, and WORTH is currently offering early bird pricing until April 15, 2024. After that date, pricing will increase to $449.00.

To ensure that the benefits of this summit extend to our entire team, I am committed to sharing insights and key takeaways through a brief presentation upon my return.

I am eager to discuss this opportunity with you further and would appreciate your approval to proceed with registration. Your support in investing in our professional growth is invaluable.

Thank you for considering my request. I look forward to our discussion.


Best regards,
