What do you do if you want to avoid the same mistakes as other event production professionals?

é importante come?ar revisitando as suas próprias experiências, quais erros e desafios você enfrentou em eventos passados que poderiam ter sido prevenidos, ou resolvidos de uma forma diferente. A partir disso, através da sua rede de contatos, você pode procurar pessoas mais experientes nesses assuntos para tirar algumas dúvidas e contribuir com suas próprias experiências. Também é uma oportunidade para expandir sua rede, pedindo que seus contatos te conectem com outros profissionais que possam te direcionar de forma mais assertiva. Acho que a dica mais importante é n?o ter medo de pedir ajuda e estar aberto a aprender.

I begin with setting clear values and intention and vision for the event. It's important to get on the same page as your client on how they want event production to be accomplished. When we start with the imagination of what the values behind the event we can filter all of the decision big or small through those values and fundamentally be a "mind-reader" event producer to your client. You will establish a memorable experience for them and their event attendees.

-To achieve a different result, you have to change the process. - After every event, seek feedbacks. Through that you will have a picture of what to improve on and what to change. - Keep yourself and your team informed. Be up to date on issues surrounding your field of expertise.

In my experience, early planning and leveraging on strategic strengths, particularly the ones that minimize failure will help avoid most mistakes. Every event is different and so is the approach to it. A well-planned event will not have mistakes

By planning meticulously you can start to identify potential errors, rectify them before they’ve even happened or be prepared if they do (or something similar does) happen - but this doesn’t necessarily mean pages and pages in the EMP - for me - the key is a mental walk through of each aspect of the event - what will it look like, how will people interact at each stage, and of course, what could go wrong. If possible, go and stand in the event space weeks prior and set out the layout to really put yourself in the moment. Take colleagues or other professionals and gain their council.

Eu acredito que todos erramos, ninguém é perfeito e n?o existe situa??o perfeita. Se alguém da área cometeu algum erro, acredito que possa aprender, ou seja, entender o que aconteceu, o que poderiam ter feito diferente, quais seriam as melhores alternativas para que n?o aconte?a novamente. Buscar o conhecimento é a melhor alternativa, e talvez tornar isto um estudo de caso oara novos aprendizados. Claro que para eventos antecipar com planejamento e organiza??o s?o as melhores coisas, mas ninguém é isento de um erro, o que n?o podemos deixar acontecer é errar 2x na memsa situa??o.

Listen to your colleagues and what is happening with their events. is there something you can use from their experience to help you avoid a mistake. most likely events happen across the year one of your other event producer colleagues may have come across the same issue prior to you or highlighted it in the team catch up which you have subconsciously been able to think about the point where you can now prevent it happening to your event or learn and make their solution more efficient

Debrief. There is ALWAYS something to learn from every event. Events are fluid and things outside your control will go wrong. Minimize errors you do control so you can handle the other hiccups calmly and efficiently.

You need to join groups or associations of like minded professionals. In this space you can share stories, experiences, strategies and tactics and be able to learn from each other.
