What Will Your Event BRING?



Many individuals in positions of leadership, seem to believe, or at least as if the do, that they should take a hands - off approach, when it comes to events, leaving all aspects to whoever has been appointed or hired, as the event planner. Perhaps, this is one of the central reasons, so many events are far less successful, than they could, and should be! While delegating someone else to handle the details, a true leader realizes, he must set the tone, evaluate the purpose, create or oversee/ evaluate budgeting, and insist upon a systematic approach, to pursuing the best possible result. The central question to be considered is, What will your event BRING?

1. Bang for buck:

How will you get the most bang for your buck? Rather than merely doing everything as it always has, one should review needs, concerns, purposes, and the best way to proceed! One must seek to enhance the actual value, bu effectively negotiating, and knowing what you need, in advance, while also creating an allure, based on perceived value, or how valuable potential attendees perceive the event to be!

2. Relevant; realistic; revenue:

Will you tweak your approach, in order to make the event more relevant, and thus, perceived as more needed and necessary? How will you make your event, one not to be missed? Are your revenue and expenditure projections realistic, and will you seek to focus on getting the most, from monies you expend?

3. Interesting; income:

An event must not merely be something, of interest to you? How will you assure it is perceived as being interesting, by others? Will you realize one must balance pricing, spending, and many other factors, so the event will not lose money, and will either be an income - maker, or income - neutral, dependent on its purpose?

4. Needs - based; net:

When you begin your focus on whether it is needs - based, and will attract significant attention and consideration, you're on the right track towards success? How will you assure, the best possible, net result?

5. Growth; generate goodwill; greatness:

A successful event is not merely getting a good turnout, but assuring those attending, come away with a positive feeling, that they spend their time and resources effectively! Groups only prosper when they grow, and successful events, are a valuable tool in the growth! Generating goodwill, combined with seeking greatness, should be the mindset of event planning!

Events can either be valuable or a waste! How will you be certain of what your event might BRING?

Kecemburuan semacam ini

Jacey melemparkan cangkir kopi kaca, (Mug Kaca Berinsulasi Dinding Ganda Zwilling), melintasi dapur. Itu menghantam dinding yang baru dicat (Behr, Sweet Coconut Milk, M230), dan hancur menjadi triliunan kepingan. "Inilah yang telah kamu lakukan pada kami!" teriaknya, suaranya berderak karena cemburu, kuku jarinya yang terawat (Orly Cold As Ice - perawatan bernapas + warna) menusuk udara ke arah tumpukan puing-puing kaca. Blayne menundukkan kepalanya, dagu keduanya mengenai dadanya terlebih dahulu. "Maaf, sayang," gumamnya. "Maaf?! Maaf!" Dia mengambil sekotak Wheat Thins dan mengangkatnya di atas kepalanya. "Tolong jangan melempar yang lain!" Blayne memohon, berdiri dari posisi setengah duduk di bangku logam di dapur. Ini adalah bangku yang sangat tidak nyaman (Bangku Meja Grejsi dengan Bingkai Logam), tetapi Jacey menyukai cara logam itu memantulkan sinar matahari di sore hari, jadi itulah yang dia beli. Dia mencondongkan tubuh ke arahnya,...

Thirteenth step

My grandmother attends the church basement on Tuesday evenings. I saw him there among the metal folding chairs and antique coffee pots, his figure trembling under the fluorescent lights that buzzed like dying insects. She wears the same powder blue pullover she was buried in, the one with pearl buttons that catch the light like little moons. Others can't see it, of course. They just feel a sudden chill as they pass by where she is, or smell the ghostly smell of her Shalimar perfume mixing with the smell of burnt coffee that never leaves these rooms. But I see clearly. He's been following me to AA meetings for three months since I got my first white chip after five years of being back in the bottle. "Your grandmother was my godmother in 1985," old Pete told me after tonight's meeting, hands shaking as he poured a seven-pack of Sweet'n Low into his coffee. "Toughest godmother I ever had. She saved my life." "Mine, too," I said, not specif...
