SUMMARY:Thriving in Uncertainty Education Program -SPOKANE
DESCRIPTION:Thriving in Uncertainty \n If the past few years have taught us anything\, it is that we can’t control what is going to happen\, but we can control our response to it. Exponential changes in technology combined with accelerated trends\, economic factors and mixed with shifts in behaviors all make for a complicated and unstable environment. The playbooks we’ve used no longer work as well; and the expectations of our audiences\, our partners\, and our organizations are higher than ever. Those who are waiting for things to go back to how they were\, will be left behind. The successful ones will learn how to look at the world differently\, measure risk in new ways\, and create flexible systems\, leaving them prepared to face whatever may come.  \nIn this invitation-only session\, Beth Surmont\, Vice President of Event Strategy & Design for 360 Live Media\, will share perspective on new event trends\, changing audience behaviors\, and how you can best prepare your team to manage uncertainty and position your organization for success.  \nLearner Outcomes:  \n• Learn new tools that will help you future-proof your organization  \n• Network with peers and share first-hand stories of lessons learned  \n• Walk away prepared to make smarter decisions for your events \n\n\n\n\n\n11:30am – 12:00pm – Registration/Networking\n12:00pm – Lunch/Networking\n12:30pm – Education Program\n1:30pm – Program Adjourns\n\n\n\n\n\nComplimentary Registration for Meeting Planners\, $50.00 Registration for Suppliers \n \nDiscounted Guest Room Block at the Davenport Grand \nStart Date: Wednesday\, September 17\, 2025 \nEnd Date: Thursday\, September 18\, 2025 \nLast Day to Book : Saturday\, August 16\, 2025 \nRate: $199.00 \nRESERVE TODAY:  Reservation-Link \nBeth Surmont CAE\, CMP Vice President\, Event Strategy & Design 360 Live Media \nBio: Beth Surmont is an event strategist who works with associations and non-profits to help them redesign\, reinvent\, and reinvigorate their events. She is fascinated by the power that events hold to drive real change in the world. With on-the-ground event planning experience spanning more than 20 years in events\, trade shows\, corporate\, and non-profit; and as the current Vice President of Event Strategy & Design at 360 Live Media\, Beth is a leading designer in what the next era of events will be.
