Some people love logistics;  many are scared or intimidated by them. This will be an experiential, fun, fast-paced 90 minute workshop designed to increase your planning and logistics skills. We’ll build our collective confidence as we look at several logistics case studies and do several hands-on planning activities. Si will share successful strategies, techniques, tools and methodologies for planning successful events, and for making complex logistics simple and manageable.   Whether you’re planning a corporate retreat, business meeting, family event, wedding, summer camp, or workshop, we’ll examine the key ingredients in effective planning and empower you to take on logistical tasks. Logistical Planning:  you’d got this!
