Every industry has its stars. Those individuals or companies who have everyone talking about what they did, who showed up and all of the resulting buzz. And meeting planning is no different. There are planners on every level, operating in small towns and large cities. There are in-house planners, corporate planners and free-lancers who work on a contract to contract basis.
No matter how exciting our events, or how fabulous our planners, most of us toil away in relative anonymity. But it’s those event planners who are creative, fearless and cutting edge who really capture our attention.
