Locked-in | Events Management Philippines

business events Philippines

After working for months in completing all the elements of your event and striving to make it profitable, the day of reckoning comes.

Right now, we have a conference event: the first Telemarketers Summit that is due to take place two weeks from now. The once peaceful office is again turning to be chaos spelled in big C. Some of the leaders of the team are starting to show lines on their forehead, evidence that the stress is slowly building-up on their emotional make-up.

The plans we written are now under review and meetings are taking place more often than necessary. This indicates that if you want to strive near perfection you cannot leave any stones left unturned. Yes, you cannot leave the event to luck or chance. You have to be, using the word of the great Andew Grove of Intel, “PARANOID” in a positive way because as he firmly believes only the paranoid survives.

The audit of the checklist is becoming a norm rather than a theoretical proposition of insurance of the event. Piece by piece every critical areas of the event are discussed and placed into the magnifying lense. Indeed, God is in the details but Murphy’s Law has its way of making Comedy out of the serious stuff we are doing.

Two weeks before the event, you see all of the plans that used to be ideas taking its physical forms. The I.D. are there, the photo plates of the speakers, the tokens, the car that will fetch the foreign speakers, the hotel rooms, the sounds system, the stage designs and ad infinitum.

This time around it is not about the question if you know about what you are doing; this time around it is a question of finishing the tasks on time and with quality.

In events, you can never be sure where the glitch will take place or come from.

Events are comprised of people; people who you pray act and perform like machines. The truth however they are people and are not machines. In this reality, you can either get the best or the worst out of them.

But in this particular element, an event becomes exciting. You are up on your toes because you expect that the event will give you an emotional rollercoaster ride; an influx of emotions awaits you. The challenge is not to run away from these situations but to manage it.

I always admire the swans in the pond. They glide effortlessly like prima ballerinas. However, beneath the water are feet that hustle - the best picture of grace under pressure.

The colourful kaleidoscope of moments I described means we are now locked-in, game face on to make another event successful in the eyes of the delegates and partners.

5 Things to Look Forward in #micecon2013

business events Philippines

Two days to go before Davao becomes the hub where tourism industry players all over the country gather.

I am talking about the upcoming MICECON 2013, March 6-9, 2013, SMX Lanang, Davao City – the third year this event will be held. So far, this is one of the most important events in the tourism industry, in particular to the MICE Industry.

Even if MICE is a commonplace word all over Asia Pacific, in the country only few people know and understand what MICE is all about.

For newbies, here are 5 things that you can look forward to in MICECON 2013:

1. Pre-Conference Activities

This one is a must attend for newbies. This year they are calling the Pre-Conference Activities the Davao Adventure Challenge - it is an activity where intellectual and physical capabilities are a must. Best of all, you learn tourism spots in Davao while playing the game.

2. The Daily Dress Motif

One thing you will be amazed in this event is the daily dress motif that delegates have to wear. This makes the event colourful, and why not this is a tourism event where glitz and glamour is the order of the day.

This MICECON 2013 the following thematic dress are required: 1^st day: Galactic Explosion (Silver, Gold, Bronze fabric), 2^nd day: Convergence (Mosaic or splash of colors), and 3^rd day: Breaking Borders (All White Business Attire).

3. Hotel Tours and Food

Every lunch and special activities are being sponsored by hotels. Delegates get to enjoy the silent competition among sponsoring hotels as they strive to show their best foot forward in courting the MICE players. And yes, delegates are brought to the hotels sponsoring the meals.

4. The Conference Speakers

All speakers are experts and practitioners. The insights you can generate can propel you to start your own ideation on what action to take as a MICE player. Expect a lot of Wow and Aha moments while listening to these speakers.

Every MICECON, this is the best thing that I enjoy as a MICE Delegate. I am very sure you will too.

5. New Friends and Business Partners

All delegates are MICE and Tourism players - I am very sure you will find a lot of companies and individuals that will complement your existing business.

This is why you should be in the event. This is the reason why MICECON or other conferences are important. The face-to-face contact enables you to establish relationships. As M.R. Covey espoused, “you can have business in the speed of trust”.

MICECON is one of those events that act as a conduit to allow you to have synergy with other MICE and tourism players.

Lastly, if you see me there or any Exlinkers taking part in the event, you may approach me or us. We love to explore possibilities. Onwards MICE Philippines!
