To accommodate a special Sustainable Meetings Conference edition of the #eventtable Twitter chat next week, the chat will change from it’s regularly scheduled time of 3 pm est, to 5 pm est Monday April 22 and will focus on takeaways from the conference.
A summary of the April 16 #eventtable Twitter chat. The title of the chat was Event Industry Influencers: Who Are They, Really? (Note: This chat was heavily attended and went very fast. Some tweets were lost. Our apologies.)
If like so many this week, you are thinking about what constitutes a top influencer in the meeting/event industry you may want to join Monday’s #eventtable chat entitled, Meeting/Event Industry Influencers: Who Are They, Really? at 3 pm est on Twitter.
How do you design your meeting or event to be brain-friendly and engaging? Neuroscience researcher Andrea Sullivan joined the #eventtable chat on 3/9 to share her expertise on this valuable topic.
The story is spreading like wildfire this weekend: Successful Meetings publishes a list of top meetings industry influencers that includes 12 men, one insect, and no women.
Industry icon and influencer Joan Eisenstodt responds with a call to action and a new Twitter hashtag, #boyzandbugs. Then our friends and strategic partners Elizabeth Henderson and Mariela McIlwraith, Calgary- and Vancouver-based principals of Meeting Change, publish their own post that explains why the Successful Meetings list was wrong in principle, wrong on strategy and practice, and wrong for anyone who cares about the future health of the industry.
To recognize the importance of this conversation and help keep the momentum going, we are refocusing our #eventtable chat on Monday, April 16 at noon Pacific/3 PM Eastern/9 PM CET. We’re setting it up as an open table to talk about the issues Mariela and Elizabeth raise in their post—how any list of industry influencers could leave out the 80% who are women, and what we can all do to prevent a repeat.
How can event professionals more easily create engaging events that employ brain-friendly techniques? Neuroscience researcher Andrea Sullivan will join the #eventtable Twitter chat to discuss this hot topic Monday, April 9 at 3 pm est.
