How to Review Your Event Effectively Without Overdoing It
Running a successful event like a conference, seminar, or workshop can be incredibly rewarding. The event day buzzes with activity as everything comes together. Challenges will crop up and be dealt with, leaving attendees in varying states of motivation. Whether it's your first or thousandth event, there's always room to learn and improve. A crucial way to enhance future events is by conducting a thoughtful review meeting supported by thorough data collection, including financial analysis and attendee feedback.
Organizing a Review Meeting
Once you’ve gathered all the necessary data, it’s time to hold a review meeting with key stakeholders. This could be part of your organization’s regular review process or a special session to assess the benefits of the event and justify future investments.
Who Should Attend?
Invite event owners, decision-makers, and influencers who need to grasp the event’s impact. While you don’t need to include the entire event team, having people who can provide additional insights or support your data with evidence can be beneficial.
Setting the Agenda
Here's a sample agenda for a typical review meeting:
- Thematicx Product Nationwide Roadshow
- Review Meeting
- Date & Time: 15:00-16:00 on 12/12/09
- Location: Main Conference Room
Agenda:
1. Overview of Roadshow Objectives and Program
2. Financial Report
3. Delegate Feedback and Follow-up Results
4. Improvement Plans
5. Successes
6. Next Steps: Discussing Program Extension
7. Any Other Business
Publishing the agenda ahead of time allows attendees to prepare their thoughts. While not everyone might read it thoroughly, providing copies during the meeting will help keep things on track.
Meeting Flow
Instead of a rigid schedule, have a flexible plan. Allocate around 20 to 30 minutes for open discussion. In an hour-long meeting, each presentation topic should take about 5 minutes, which allows for one or two slides if using them. This pacing keeps attendees engaged and ready to discuss future plans.
Expect the Unexpected
Be ready for surprises. Events that seem to run smoothly may reveal issues only upon deeper examination. Conversely, events fraught with crises can sometimes be more engaging for attendees, prompting them to pay closer attention and perhaps even appreciate the unexpected twists.
By maintaining a structured yet adaptable approach to your review meetings, you can uncover valuable insights and ensure your future events are even more successful.
