Dee McCoy is an event planner who worked with Akia on the design, décor, and aesthetic elements of the conference to make the environment engaging and visually pleasing, especially since it was a gloomy day outside.    Dee's reasons for attending the event were threefold: to pour back into her business, to reconnect with her own work after focusing on clients' needs, and to introduce her daughter, a young entrepreneur, to the business world with a Christ-centered foundation.   She learns that clients often struggle to understand hotel jargon, and her goal became to bridge that gap, ensuring both the hotel's needs and the client's vision were aligned for successful events.   Dee helps clients execute their vision while ensuring the event meets both aesthetic and logistical requirements, such as negotiating contracts and managing budget expectations.   Her business is defined by the idea that “the difference is in the details,” and she takes pride in offering valuable advice and insights, even if it means stepping in to help when needed.   Dee highlights the importance of continuous learning and honing your craft. She also discusses that business owners should always learn something that replenishes them as well.    Instagram: mdmassociatesdc  Facebook: Events by MDM Associates   Previous Episode: iam240-event-planner-helps-create-a-great-client-experience-with-a-touch-of-hospitality   Check out our CEO Hack Buzz Newsletter–our premium newsletter with hacks and nuggets to level up your organization.

As professional communicators, team leaders, change managers, and even project managers, we can often be tasked with managing events. Whether it's a CEO town hall, a conference, an expo, or anything in between, there's always some kind of event we will be called in to help organise, if not manage, entirely.Though that doesn't mean we know what we are doing. In fact, quite a few of us have no idea what we're doing, which is why event management professionals should be on your speed dial. Because how do you make sure the event you run gets the outcomes you want? And that's what today's episode of the Less Chatter, More Matter podcast is all about. Featuring the expert, Sally Porteous, who is a passionate advocate for creating remarkable audience experiences where she has created three pillars of support for her event community. Red Lanyard is the production company supporting people and organisations to create their best work.
