#MPIWI
We’ve gotten through 2020 – now what? As things start opening up again, are we planning virtual, hybrid or in-person meetings? How can we effectively plan when protocols are changing, each state has different opening schedules and some properties aren’t fully re-staffed and open yet? If you used to plan 12-24 months out and now 4-6 months is more the norm, how’s that going to work?
This interactive session with Carolyn Browning, CMP, CMM, HMCC of MEETing Needs, LLC will include a panel discussion with Chapter planners & suppliers talking about how they are designing flexible options to accommodate different needs and preferences.
Panelists include:
Volunteer Reception and Kick-Off!

One of the greatest gifts you can give is your time!
