The world of event management has changed significantly over the last few years, with newer technologies gaining grounds and making things better. The emergence of different events software has made tasks a lot easier when deployed in event planning; one can even gain an edge over his competitors.
Aside from using these technologies to achieve set goals, it is important to analyze one’s strengths and weaknesses as an event planner.
Every event planner has a differing degree of strengths and weaknesses. There are things that I value so much that do not matter to you. There are clients you would consider a perfect fit but would naturally drive me crazy.
By taking the time to learn about my personality, it presents me with a much better understanding of my strengths and weaknesses during event planning. When I read and learn about other personality traits, I can improve my relationship with clients and also vendors.

A lot of people think they “know it all,” but in most cases, they are not aware of the field they are in.

Think, and be successful.
