Why Passion Is Important For Event Management

I’m sure you’ve heard the old cliché more times than you’d care to remember – in any industry, passion is one of the most important traits you can possibly have. Without it, nothing else really matters. No matter how talented you are; no matter how skilled and adept you happen to be at what you do, if you lack passion, it’s going to be noticeable in pretty much everything you do. You’re probably wondering why I’m telling you this. After all, informing someone that they just “need to be passionate” is one of the emptiest niceties one can possibly spout. […]

The Three Biggest Problems You’ll Encounter Running A Charity Event

Charity events are pretty awesome. Not only can you feel like a great person for serving a noble cause, a well-run event can be one of the most enjoyable experiences in the world. That said, they can also be even more stressful than a traditional conference or show.  See, like any other affair, charity events come packaged with their own unique set of roadblocks.

Sadly, he never lived to see his theories come to life – he died in 1980, […]

Is it Possible to Run an Event without a Physical Venue?

It seems like an undeniable truth: if you don’t have a venue in which to run your event, there is no event.  After all, you need a place for your keynotes. You need booths for your vendors, caterers for your guests, a green room for your volunteers, and… Honestly? I’m not certain any of that is even necessary. All you really need is the right software. I should explain. See, we’re living in a society that’s increasingly virtualized. Thanks to improvements in networking technology, what might have been impossible fifteen years ago is completely plausible today. I’m talking about more […]

Five Event Management Tips For Planning The Perfect Wedding

A wedding can be one of the most beautiful events known to man. Here are two individuals ready to swear their life to each other; two people who are ready to devote themselves entirely to one another. Attending one of these events, it’s hard not to shed a tear or two. Of course, for every wedding that’s an awe-inspiring testament to love, there’s also one that’s a complete and utter disaster. Those ones are memorable for entirely different reasons. If you’ve been hired to plan someone’s wedding, you need to do everything in your power to ensure that it falls […]
