SUMMARY:Best in Class Education Event - Challenge Your Assumptions
DESCRIPTION:[vc_btn title=”Register Now” style=”classic” color=”primary” align=”center” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fna.eventscloud.com%2F701148|||”]\n    Challenge Your Assumptions: The First Step in Overcoming Your Blind Spots \nIt’s a fact; human nature causes us to develop a set of beliefs and biases over time. This is especially the case in our work lives. And the cold truth is\, we have no real skills to overcome them. \nIf you have worked with the same client or engaged with the same leadership team… on the same event… with the same audience… year after year… then it is likely you’ve developed serious blind spots that can limit your ability to enhance your attendees’ experiences. \nHow long has it been since you’ve asked yourself if what you believe is actually true? Do you have current\, accurate data to help drive your business decisions? If “what we’ve always done because that’s who our clients are…” is still driving your work\, it’s time to step back and check your assumptions. \nJoin us to unveil the impact your beliefs and biases have on your work and shine a light on how you can start overcoming them. \nIn this session you will:\n• Learn ways to identify bias in yourself and in your teams\n• Identify holes in your data-driven decision making\n• Learn tools to gather new intelligence so you can overcome blind spots and deliver the outcomes your audience really wants \nSpeakers:\n      \nTim Simpson                            Megan Finnell\nMaritz Global Events                                 MGMA \n  \nSponsors:

SUMMARY:Student Insight Series
DESCRIPTION:The PCMA Student Insight Series aims to expose students to different aspects of the Business Events Industry and perspectives of working professionals at all career levels. \nThis month’s topic: “Negotiating the best contract and how to maintain lasting relationships.” \nThis session will be hands-on\, including a breakout portion. Come ready with your questions! \nPanel: \nMoira O’Brien has been with McCormick Place Convention Center\, currently managed by ASM Global\, since 2009. As the Director of Sales for McCormick Place since 2015\, Moira and her team secure events at the largest convention center in North America ranging from major city-wide conventions and trade shows\, Association and Corporate meetings\, public and consumer shows to smaller catering functions. Having worked as a National Sales Manager then Senior Sales Manager with McCormick Place Moira has managed all types of accounts and industry segments. \nPrior to McCormick Place\, Moira worked as an Executive Recruiter in the hospitality industry focusing on Leadership placements in both the hotel and restaurant communities. This was preceded by ten years working with a hospitality trade association managing membership\, sponsorship and trade show logistics plus five years in the hotel industry directly out of college where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management\, all which prepared her well for her current role building relationships with customers\, the convention bureau and all our hospitality partners to host successful events at McCormick Place. \nIn 2020-21\, the COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted the global meetings and events industry. Moira is passionately committed to the continued recovery efforts at McCormick Place. McCormick Place was one of the first facilities to commit to the GBAC STAR™ Accreditation\, an independent review of our cleaning and business operations to reduce the spread of infectious diseases. Since being able to host large scale events again as of July of 2021\, we are thrilled many of our event organizers have been able to meet safely and successfully achieve their event’s missions. \nMoira lives in Chicago and is constantly exploring new restaurants in Chicago’s thriving culinary scene. She is a lifelong Chicago Cubs fan\, always hoping for late October baseball. Moira tries to relax with yoga and travel\, and still has many places to experience to her bucket list. \n \n\nMatt Radenbaugh has been working in hotel sales for 20 years\, first with the Drake Hotel and now with the Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park. Previous to that\, he was in the front office and convention services\, so he prides himself on knowing the ins and outs of hotel operations in order set realistic expectations for his clients and setting them up for a successful conference experience. He believes a group contract should be a “win-win” agreement\, in which both sides feel risks are shared and terms are fair. In his free time\, Matt enjoys spending time with his family and pursuing his passion of fishing all over the Chicagoland area. \n  \n \nMurray Ryan has served in the meetings and events industry for over 30 years.  Prior to joining the Encore family Murray worked in a variety of sales and marketing roles for leading industry firms including Hyatt\, Hilton\, Tourism Toronto\, and PRG.  Murray is a proud member of the Greater Midwest Chapter of PCMA\, having served on the Board of Directors in various years\, most recently serving as chapter President in 2018. \n  \n  \n \nJen Salerno is a 20-year veteran of the hospitality & events industry. Throughout her career\, Jen has worked with and consulted for many of the biggest trade shows in the country and specializes in strengthening the relationship between event planners and the hospitality community. \nToday\, she is owner of JTS Connect\, which provides live\, virtual and hybrid event host/emcee and moderating services. She is also host of The Room Block\, the podcast where hospitality and event professionals meet. Jen is passionate about solidifying the connections across our industry\, and is ready to connect your team or audience with ideas that inspire action. \n  \nLindsay Woike attended College at Eastern Illinois University and majored in Business Management with a minor in Hospitality. Had to complete an internship with my minor and headed to Hilton Head South Carolina to Vagabond Cruise where myself and a team of interns ran the operations for the sightseeing and excursion cruise operator. After graduation I started a job at Hyatt Regency Deerfield as the Assistant Outlets Manager. About 7 months into my position\, Hyatt sold the hotel and promoted me to Assistant Banquet Manager at the Hyatt Regency Louisville where they moved me to. From there I found my love for meetings and events. After 3 years with Hyatt\, I moved back to Chicago and started work with the American College of Healthcare Executives as their Meeting Planner. After a few years with ACHE I was promoted to Senior Meeting Planner and was with ACHE a total of 7 years. While I loved working with associations\, it was time to grow my career and learn about being a manger. I found my next job with CNO Financial as the Manager of Operations for Training and Development. During this time COVID came and my job changed quite a bit and we all had to pivot with the times. After 3 years with CNO Financial I moved to my current job which is Manager\, Meetings and Event Experiences with Institute of Food Technologists this past December. I am now planning\, with my amazing team\, to put on a show for 18\,000 people in person and 2\,000 virtually with my team at Institute of Food Technologists.

How do we\, as leaders\, influence key stakeholders to drive change and move the needle? In this interactive workshop\, we will share best practices to get buy-in for more inclusive events. There will also be dedicated time for conversations with your colleagues as we collaborate together to increase inclusion and make an impact.

SUMMARY:September Education Event : Reimagining the Audience Journey
DESCRIPTION: RMPCMA September Education Event\nReimagining the Audience Journey\nThursday\, September 9 | DoubleTree by Hilton\n13696 E. Iliff Place\, Aurora\, CO 80014\nPresentation Slides\nHealth and Safety Policy\nNote: Masks will be required for this event  \nWe will require all attendees to wear a mask at all times while indoors unless actively eating and drinking. If feasible\, we will provide opportunities to eat/drink outside\, to increase safety.  \nThe current situation remains very uncertain. Many factors remain completely out of our control\, up to and including local\, state or federal laws. Depending on situations arising from these factors\, we may also institute additional policies to provide a reasonably safe environment which include any of the following (or others\, as needed):    \n\nProof of vaccines. \nSocial Distancing\, etc. \nCancel in-person gatherings virtual. \n\nWe will share additional information during our Know-Before-You-Go email about 1 week prior to the conference.  \nThese plans may change between now and the end of the conference. Rules and requirements are likely to change as the situation evolves. Resources will be added or removed and links to files may change as we constantly adjust to a changing reality. Please continue to monitor this page for the latest information. \n  \n \nPresented by Justin Boone \nJustin Boone is a researcher\, strategist\, and designer that has built a career working with some of the most notable and disruptive brands in modern history. His work includes narrative and experience architecture development\, campaign strategy\, creative direction\, and content development for a wide range of applications. In 2020\, Justin founded Untitled Future\, a story-driven strategic marketing agency. The name Untitled Future stems from a direct acknowledgment that we don’t know what tomorrow will bring. We can only control how we address today in hopes that our decisions will result in a positive impact on the world of tomorrow. The agency centers its work around exploring how brands\, their products\, and services\, make us feel\, think and act—and finding new ways to imbue stronger meaning around those attributes through rich\, compelling storytelling and experiences. \nReimaging the Audience Journey \nThe experience economy was a term that was all the rage prior to the pandemic. This time was considered the “heyday” for events and experiences\, as well as experiential retail. But as the pandemic limited the potential for in-person gatherings\, the concept of what was considered an experience significantly broadened. Post pandemic\, we’ll be living in a truly experiential world where everything and anything can be considered an experience. This discussion will focus first on the human psychology behind why we both desire and need experiences in our lives\, including the functional\, behavioral\, habitual\, cultural\, and ritualistic aspects to everyday and unforgettable experiences. We’ll then dive into the wide variety of tools that planners\, designers\, marketers\, and facilitators have at their disposal to reimagine the way they engage with audiences\, resulting in a more robust audience journey and sustained engagement. \nLearner outcomes: \n\nHolistic perspective of the new definition of post-pandemic events and experiences\nA new understanding of the emotional drivers that foster engagement\nNew tools for mapping a more robust audience journey for events and experiences\n\nSchedule of Events:\n2:00pm -2:45pm – Registration\n2:45pm – 3:00pm – Welcome\n3:00pm – 4:30pm – Education\n4:30pm – 5:30pm – Reception \nSponsored by: \n \n

SUMMARY:Community Conversations: Event Registration Trends
DESCRIPTION:As we return to in-person events\, many organizations are experiencing major shifts in attendee registration patterns. Some organizations are reporting that in-person numbers are still lower than pre-pandemic levels\, they’re coming in much later in the timeline and many are sticking with online experiences as the world remains unstable. Let’s discuss what patterns you’re experiencing and brainstorm some ideas for adjusting our expectations\, our planning processes and for driving more predictable trends in the coming months.

SUMMARY:Community Conversations: Partnerships in the New Age of Events
DESCRIPTION:Join us Wednesday\, May 26th at 11:30 AM! \nMany event partnerships have undergone significant turmoil over the last 15 months. Some organizations didn’t survive the pandemic. Of those still standing\, some partnerships didn’t survive\, and others are hanging on by a thread. While we continue to sort out those relationships\, it’s time to turn our focus towards the future. As we stand on the precipice of a massive return to in-person events\, it’s time to start having serious discussions with planners AND partners about the realities of these new partnerships. \nWhat are the new planner needs? \nWhat are suppliers able (and unable) to provide at this point and moving forward? \nHow to set expectations accordingly by negotiating contracts that allow all parties to succeed? \n
