This was over an year ago, after I successfully planned, coordinated, and managed my first event for Blowplast Limited, less than a month after joining. The smile and confidence can tell it all. A successful event comes with a pang of pride!!🤗😊
Events inspire, teach, intrigue and bring people together in a way, unlike most other marketing initiatives.
I will share what skills and experience events planning has gained and taught me:
1.Multitasking- To succeed in this, you have to stay level-headed while trying to juggle several things at once and dealing with multiple stakeholders.Keeping your cool even when under pressure will help you think clearly.
2.Organization skills- Apart from coordinating with vendors and adhering to deadlines, have a keen eye for detail, keep budgets in check, and recall the smallest of details.
3.Time management- Effective time management will ensure your event runs on schedule, you're able to do more in less time, reduces stress, and contributes to overall success.
4.Communication skills-Be an active listener especially when working with a team. Accept criticism and be open to others’ ideas! Also, communicate respectfully and thoughtfully with others.
Lastly, as cliched as this may seem, have the passion and enthusiasm for your work.
