Designing & Producing Effective Mission-Focused Events

Nobody produces events just for the sake of doing it. Understanding the true purpose of your events is like having the address for your GPS app and is a crucial first step. This session paints a big picture perspective for your events, helping you achieve your mission success and objectives.
