Putting Wellness on the Agenda
Featuring:
Kristine Iverson
CROW Practice
Wellness is a $480 billion dollar business in the United States, growing up to 10% annually, according to McKinsey. This is not a trend, it's a widespread cultural priority for physical and emotional well-being that extends to expectations in meetings. Kristine Iverson, Founder of CROW Practice will share suggestions for integrating wellness elements into events of all types, enhancing the attendee experience, boosting engagement, satisfaction and overall success.
Participants will learn:
- The growing significance of health and wellness in event planning
- How to integrate wellness elements into the agenda
- Why prioritizing wellness increases attendee engagement and satisfaction
- Several techniques that meeting planners can use when overwhelmed or stressed
