For event management to be successful, a few skills are needed. Qualities like attention to detail, patience, creativity and strategic thinking all come in to play at many points all through the process. Hence, it is essential to approach event management with a firm plan that assists you explore the rocky road and emerge out of the other side comparatively unscathed, bathed in the glory of a successful event.
The following are the 5 Cs of event management in Hawaii
Concept
When you conceptualize your event, you make the framework from which it will grow. The end goal of the event needs to be clear and communicable to your targeted audience. When you have this, you can begin to be thoughtful about the audience, how to reach them and how to engage them.
Coordination
Once you have the concept, the planning can start. This is most likely one of the longest phases of the process since there will likely be pretty a few things you need to cover.
Control
Event control indicates that you are in control. Ensure you keep things tight and stick to your plan as far as possible. If you begin to go off-piste and get distracted, it is possible that you might waste money, time, or both.
Culmination
The culmination stage involves communicating with suppliers’ staff and vendors, keeping a close look at timelines, monitoring security, and making sure everything is set up at the right time.
Closeout
This stage comes after the event is over. It can include ensuring the venue is tidy and clean, closing off with caterers, and liaising with staff.
