Course Description:
 
Events often leave engagement to chance rather than planning for it — even though the engagement side of an event may account for half of its success! This hands-on session introduces seven practical, replicable tactics to increase engagement and make networking more meaningful at association conferences, chapter meetings, expos, and more. Whether you’re planning a major annual meeting or a local member gathering, you’ll learn how to go beyond the usual coffee breaks and receptions to build stronger connections, build community, and ensure people leave feeling it was worth their time. You’ll try out these techniques during the workshop and walk away ready to apply them at your next event.
 
 
Learning Objectives:
 
Identify common limitations of traditional event networking formats such as coffee breaks and receptions
 
Describe seven practical tactics to enhance engagement at association events of all sizes.
 
Demonstrate selected engagement techniques during the session to increase attendee interaction and connection.
