May I suggest that the rules of hosting a business event should mirror the way you host an evening at home? For a social event –
· You invite your guests
· All hosts are present
· Everyone is welcomed warmly
· You are dutiful to all your guests’ needs
· You never leave them alone
· You make all necessary introductions
· You ply them with food and drink
· You work hard at giving everyone a pleasant and enjoyable time
Yet when it comes to hosting business events how many times do you see guests standing alone and the hosts gathered together in a different part of the room?
The investment in corporate events not just in terms of money but also time spent should ensure the rules of engagement for both types of event are precisely the same.
