"Ensuring effectiveness of events."
-The Hindu Business Line
Description:
Anyone responsible for organising a voluntary or public event will want to do it safely and well, complying with the legislation relating to different aspects of their event.
This book will help you to research, plan, organize, manage and deliver any event, match, show, tournament or function that will be attended by more than a handful of people.
You may be running a gymkhana, fete, fun run, steam fayre, half marathon, carnival, school sports day, jumble sale, tennis tournament, car boot sale, model aircraft show or even a huge pop festival or Formula 1 car race.
Whatever it is, the principles are the same. As event manager you will need to research, plan, liaise with authorities, obtain permissions and licences, comply with legal requirements and then deliver the event to the public.
Target Audience: Event Managers, Students of Event Management.

About the Author:
Des G Conway first became involved in organising, planning and managing events in 1980, where he made and saw many mistakes, and began to identify what made an event fail or succeed. Later, and over 18 years, he played a central role in policing a variety of small, medium and large events, where he learned more about what makes an event a success. Lack of planning and preparation, lack of understanding and overlooking important issues can easily make any event far less successful than it should be. That's why he wrote the book - compiling all of that information and experience to help make sure that your event is a success.
