Is Gravity Killing Your Events?

Gravity is the #1 enemy of success – in any arena.  What’s Gravity?  That’s our status quo way of thinking and doing that holds us in the past – even as our markets and buyers evolve.  Rebel Brown applies the lessons from her bestselling business strategy book, Defy Gravity, to the event management arena.  Specifically this session will focus on:

• Identifying and releasing limiting status quo behaviors and beliefs in today's event approaches
• Defining and implementing new and highly compelling approaches that will drive event success
  
• Shifting your perspectives so that you can Defy Gravity and succeed - again, and again, and again...
