Attending an event as a visible minority can often be an uncomfortable experience, as the feeling of not belonging can permeate the atmosphere. The stark contrast between oneself and the majority can create an undeniable sense of awkwardness and unease. Such situations leave one questioning their place within the event, ultimately leading to discomfort and a sense of being unwelcome. This sentiment is further amplified when attending an event as a person with a disability, only to find that the event's management has overlooked essential accommodations such as ramps or wheelchair accessibility. Recognizing the significance of inclusivity, diversity, and equality in event planning is of utmost importance. In this captivating episode of Eventist365, Yanique engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Mary Wang, delving into the crucial topics of diversity, equality, and inclusion within the realm of events planning. Highlights: 00:25 Mary's favorite tech tools and what features does she like most when using them? 04:51 How does Mary ensure that diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) are incorporated in the event's designing process? 07:49 Why does Mary even think of the small nuances in planning events? (Does it come from being a minority herself?) 10:01 The practice of inclusivity and creating a space for minorities where they are welcomed. 12:24 Breaking the barriers to gender equality especially in hardware technology. 14:28 Mary talks about a mentor who has impacted her career in meaningful ways. 16:23 How can Event Managers show empathy with their team? 20:11 What are the tangible metrics that every event manager need to share to their team so that they can do their job well? (...The balance of quantity versus quality.) 24:00 How can there be a balance between in-person events and virtual events? (...Is a mix of both a good thing?) 26:32 What are the benefits when you balance your personal passions with your professional responsibilities? 29:16 What is that one event that every Event Planner should attend to improve on their skills?

Planning Events That Give BackWouldn't it be great if you and your couples, clients and customers could make an impact that goes beyond thrilling their guests? Well, Robert Kalt and Howard Goldberg have created PlanKind to help you do just that. Imagine feeding 200 guests at a wedding and also providing 200 meals for a local soup kitchen. Or having a corporate event at an art museum and providing art supplies to a local children's center. The possibilities are as endless as your imagination and as big as your hearts.Listen to this new episode for some ideas on how you and your clients can make a bigger impact on every event.About PlankindWelcome to a one-of-a-KIND event planning service called PlanKind. Our unique company performs acts of kindness that benefit people in need within the very same communities where an event takes place! What makes these acts so special is they relate to specific characteristics of the functions being planned. For example, planning a wedding for 200 guests, we'll help feed the same number of children that are hungry or homeless.Although every event has its own unique purpose and characteristics, most of them have one thing in common. They take place in a city where there's a growing population of people in need. With thousands of meetings, weddings, and special events taking place around the world each day, surely there's a way we can make a collective difference and help those who are less fortunate. And, as an added bonus, help spread something that is sorely missing in the world these days…kindness, empathy, and compassion for our fellow human beings!Company Name: PlanKindWebsite: www.plankindevents.comMain Email Address: info@plankindevents.comPhone: 888.448.1930Social Media Handle: #plankindeventsPrimary Contacts:Robert Kalt, PresidentHoward Goldberg, VP SalesIf you have any questions about anything in this, or any of my podcasts, or have a suggestion for a topic or guest, please reach out directly to me at Alan@WeddingBusinessSolutions.com or visit my website Podcast.AlanBerg.comPlease be sure to subscribe to this podcast and leave a review (thanks, it really does make a difference).

Today we're speaking to Chris Rees of ReesLeisure who has made a name for himself in the sports & leisure industry, with the ABP Southampton Marathon being one of his most widely recognised and attended events. In our chat, we go over the huge impact that Chris' sporting events have made to the city, how an event is planned from conception to execution, what would happen if he got hit by a bus and the importance of being memorable when networking.
