Event managers – recharge at one-day conference

Event management has increasingly become a more popular career choice, and it is useful in almost every single industry. Whether you have to organise a meeting, a year end function, a fundraising dinner or big conference, you need to know what's “hot” and what's not. The Event Management conference, organised by Knowledge Resources, in November 2007 has been carefully put together for event managers, promoters, executive PAs, and anyone who has been tasked with preparing, designing, and implementing all types of events.
Event managers – recharge at one-day conference

With subjects as diverse as the 2010 World Cup, event insurance, company reputation, entertainment, managing stress and cultural diversity, delegates will come away with a toolbox stacked full of new knowledge and insights.

Not only will delegates have the opportunity to hear leading practitioners discuss relevant issues that will help to improve business performance, but they will have more than enough time to build their networks by sharing experiences, and learning from other event experts.

Some of the speakers at this conference include:

  • Gary Bailey, South Africa's former World Cup ambassador
  • Dee Reuvers, Managing Director, NichePro (Ltd) Pty
  • Lyett Coetzee, Professional Event Director, Epic Events Africa
  • Makheni Motana, Motivational speaker and author
  • Mark Pilgrim, Radio Host, Highveld Stereo
  • Margot Katz, Author and Consultant
  • Ray Howell, Managing Director, Confex Insurance Brokers

    The Event Management conference will take place on 6 November 2007 at Cabanga Conference Centre, Johannesburg. The cost is R2 800 per person (including VAT).
