New Episode Alert! - Who’s Job Is It Anyway? Surviving Event Team Chaos Teamwork makes the dream work—if only we could decide whose job it is. Time to figure it out with Tanya Philyaw. In this episode, Elizabeth McKenna, CMP, CED, Liz Hogan, and David Hanscom are joined by Tanya Philyaw, CMP, Senior Meeting Planner at Meeting Professionals International to dive into the art of collaboration in event planning. Tanya shares why a strong foundation of respect and communication is crucial from the very first meeting to the day-of-event madness. They discuss the reality of working in high-pressure situations and why approaching challenges with a "figureoutable" mindset makes all the difference. Whether it’s deciding who’s responsible for what or addressing unforeseen challenges, this episode will teach you how to truly be a partner—not just a vendor or client. #eventprofs #mpi #meetingprofessionalsinternational https://lnkd.in/eBTKwDm5
