Compare and contrast successful strategies used by event planning companies, drawing on profiles of these companies and other evidence from industry magazines, news articles, or textbooks, making note of most beneficial strategies. Evaluate which strategies are appropriate for certain events (i.e., galas, banquets, weddings,etc.). As part of the class project, investigate potential nonprofits or organizations for an event, and collaboratively determine which organization would be appropriate given classroom constraints. Potential clients could include, for example, a local non-profit or community organization.
