For 15 years, Jim Gilmore’s firm Strategic Horizons has staged an event called thinkAbout. Conceptualized anew each year and staged in different cities, the event has been featured in Fast Company, Inc. and TIME magazine. Drawing from a rich mix of design footprints and execution techniques, Gilmore will share 101 specific event-enhancing ideas such as:
|
| • | Creative meeting room configurations and facilitation techniques
|
| • | Memorable pre- and post-event materials
|
| • | Guiding tours and leveraging outside speakers
|
| • | Turning “everyday” elements into engaging costuming and props
|
| • | Rethinking awards ceremonies and other events
