Last Friday night I found myself in the middle of a dance floor, surrounded by talented colleagues, professionals, friends, award nominees, family members, and maybe a few people who decided to crash the best party of the year. I felt a sense of community and a sense of pride. Not because it was a really cool party, but because we had all come together to do something we are known for- supporting and celebrating each other.

Thank you to the incredible committee, sponsors, vendors, volunteers, Board of Directors, and this year's Director, Kastina Morrison.

Yesterday I attended another event, Global Meetings Industry Day (GMID), which was organized by MPI Minnesota  and showcased seven associations in our community, including ILEA-MSP. It was insightful to hear discussions about where our industry is heading and the importance that associations play in that future. However, the future is also met with challenges. I'll share a summary of my GMID takeaways next week.

Do you want to be a part of that future? Join a committee or the Board of Directors - see the information below on how you can become involved!

ILEA April Webinar
"Managing Scope Creep"
Wednesday, April 13th, 2022
1:30 pm ET
 
How many times have we gone above and beyond for a client? Did they ask or did you offer? Or maybe a little bit of both? We’re going to have an honest conversation about how to recognize and manage Scope Creep and all those little additions to your agreed-upon Scope of Work.

In our industry, it is easy for add-ons and changes to pop up and decisions or additions need to be made on the fly. Are you and your team prepared to manage them?
Our speakers, Tiffany James, CMP, DES and Chantel Megaffin will be walking through the following:
  • Defining Scope of Work
  • Negotiating changes and contract addendums
  • Tracking scope creep
  • Setting client expectations
Moderated by,
Tracy Moran, CSEP, CTA
$25 USD for Non-Members
