First published in April 2001, 'The Complete Idiot's Guide To Meeting And Event Planning' was the first major series book published on this topic. Since then, although additional titles have come along, this book remains the best-selling book in the category. Written by meeting and event professionals, this title not only gives meeting planners practical tips, tactics, and advice for putting together successful events, but also the professional terminology, reporting forms, and event strategies.
Now, fully updated and expanded, 'The Complete Idiot's Guide To Meeting And Event Planning, 2nd Edition, takes meeting planning to the next level. People new to this topic often learn the hard way about budget planning, negotiations for meeting space and food, room setup, and planning programs.
