Hi Edwin,

Last week you received an email explaining the chasm that we’ve discovered this year working with EAs across the country and executive level management. There is a disconnect between tasks that are assigned to staff who plan meetings and events and the necessary training to support upskilling these individuals.

Most HR and Learning and Development departments focus on leadership, strategy and communication. Unfortunately, they do not offer training for staff in the critical areas of meetings and events that can adversely affect business outcomes, thus everyone loses. Management loses in various ways. For example, meeting vision and objectives may not be achieved to their fullest extent. Vendor contracts and agreements may not be optimally negotiated from cost, insurance, & safety perspectives. Thus, increasing the risk of damage to the company’s reputation and bottom line. Companies may not allocate staff the time and resources they need to be in a position to successfully plan and execute meetings & events.   You can change that by requiring – and supporting – your team and staff to take training in this critical area.

Recently, an untrained individual was assigned to plan a meeting for a major Wall Street bank. Management did not fully comprehend how unsure she was about planning this event as it involved customers and key management of the institution. When cancellations occurred due to weather conditions and key people could not attend, over $50K was lost due to inadequate protection on the contract agreements. This is only one example of many that happen every year.

Visit the Certificate website today and download the Certificate Summary now to get a synopsis of the program and all the content. I am asking you to address the disconnect where Management is required to take training and given the TIME to participate and support staff is not. Give your EA and support team the same opportunity and I assure you that you will reap the benefits again, and again.
