What is in your event planning schedule for 2008?
As we start another year, we are hopeful for a better year than before. It is a new start and time to "clean the slate" and start fresh. It is easy to let things "take its course" for change, but that is further from the truth.
Try something new in organizing your events this year. There is always room for improvement.
1) Get a white board to organize your events for the coming 12 months.
2) Have a briefing with your planning staff and hand out specific duties and have them accountable for these tasks.
3) Start brainstorming ideas for your annual conference.
4) Be more proactive as opposed to reactive to planning this year.
5) Lastly, expect success! Remember the principle of "be-do-have."
