However, anyone who has put together such a gathering knows it is anything but easy and effortless. Nothing - not even the smallest detail - can be left to chance.

Gain the 5 C's of successful event planning   

	Coordinate Multiple Tasks Without Dropping the Ball When you organize an event, you must make progress on many different fronts at once. You must be able to keep all your plans moving forward toward the big day - without letting anything slide. Find out what you can do to start right, and stay on track.
	Communicate Clearly and Follow Up Excellent communications skills are a huge asset in event and meeting planning. Discover the simple steps you can take to make sure everyone knows what to do, and when. Develop a tickler file so you can be sure everyone is meeting key dates. Learn how to listen actively, so you can detect problem areas before they erupt into crises.
	Choose the Right Team She may be your best friend, but that doesn't make her your best resource for organizing an event. Learn what skills to look for in those you recruit for your planning team. The right people can make all the difference in your ultimate success.
	Create a Project Plan Some planners call it their "event bible." Whatever you call it, its function is to provide you with a blueprint of everything that must be accomplished and every detail that must be handled if you are to reach your goal of a smooth-running, successful meeting, retreat, or convention.
	Control the Big Day The best-laid plans can go haywire if setup, teardown, traffic flow, and other such issues aren't carefully considered in advance. Don't wait until event day to find out about such matters, when they erupt into chaos and fly in the face of all your hard work. A happy consequence of early planning is that it frees you up to consider details you might otherwise have missed.
