Dreamforce 2014: THE place to be for all you Salesforce Admins out there!

You've worked hard to become a Salesforce Administrator. You studied and aced the Salesforce Certified Administrator exam. You've built a solid understanding of your company's business processes, and gained unparalleled knowledge of the organizational structure and culture of said company. You've built excellent communication, motivational, and presentation skills because of your intense desire to be the voice of the user within your company.
