This episode will showcase how to be an effective advocate in the event industry. Advocacy in the meeting and event planning industry plays a very important role, one that everyone can actively participate in. 

Showing public support for your industry to family, friends, and your community can garner support in times when the industry needs it most. 

This episode shows that you can be an advocate in several different ways. Here are some of the areas that are explained:

  • Aligning with partner organizations
  • Get involved in advocacy, educate, and share
  • Teach or speak in a meeting and event management or hospitality program 
  • Recruit for the industry, provide direction to connections and education
  • Guide others to the appropriate certification within the industry
  • Get involved politically
  • Participate in Global Meetings Industry Day

 It doesn't take a big effort to be an advocate in the meetings industry. All it takes is for each of us to do our parts so that we can see our industry continue to grow by leaps and bounds.
