AAEA TO HOLD WEBINAR "PLANNING AND SETTING GOALS" THIS WEDNESDAY
AAEA-The Agricultural Communicators Network reports:

For ag editors and communicators, there's never a time when you aren't busy. As harvest wraps up, and farmers and ranchers start planning and decision-making for the 2019 season, ag editors and communicators are doing the same.

Whether it's setting professional goals, personal goals, or creating a budget for content for the upcoming year, putting a plan in place is the first step toward reaching those goals.

To help you get started planning for the 2019 year, the AAEA Young Professionals SIG is hosting a webinar on November 14 at 11 a.m. to discuss goal setting. The webinar, moderated by Tyler Harris, editor at Nebraska Farmer, will feature speakers Lon Tonneson, editor at Dakota Farmer, and Kenna Rathai, freelancer and associate public relations director at Broadhead.

The webinar will cover topics and questions like:

• Tips for setting goals for the following years - including goals that are ambitious and quantifiable, yet reasonable

• Taking steps throughout the year to make sure those goals are met

• What happens when you need to make an adjustment to your goal or expectations during the year?

• How do you plan for something when it's a year or more away? For example, when planning an editorial calendar for the year?

• How do you use tools like Excel spreadsheets to budget for content and article ideas for the coming year? What other tools do you use for planning and reminders?

• When it is necessary to prepare so far in advance, how do you gather content that will be fresh and have shelf life for later in the year? How do you arrange interviews for content that far in advance?

• How do you manage your time for these kinds of long-term tasks, with day-to-day tasks that are more short-term?
