Merging Strategy and Creative for Business Outcomes

As marketing or event industry professionals, we all want great ideas for our events, but how do we spark creativity and put it to work?

Based on decades of experience, I wrote What Color Is Your Event? The Industry Resource on How to Think and Plan Creatively, taught at New York University and developed industry-approved work- shops designed to stimulate and inspire.

We will look at the power of well-planned, well-designed, and well-executed events to energize people and make a difference.

Create a Culture of Creative Collaboration

Businesses, companies, and managers constantly reach for innovative ways to provide cutting-edge solutions for employees, staff, customers and potential clients.

Need new ideas? You’ve come to the right place, as “No Idea Is Out of Reach.” We help people, teams and companies think differently to uncover and reach their true potential!

If you would like to discuss the many options for creative or leadership training for women in your company, team or association, please contact me directly.

Creative leaders establish a safe and supportive environment that allows free-flowing interaction and engagement. —Dianne Devitt

Thank you for the inspiring workshop. This woke up the creative side of my brain and gave me several ideas on how to incorporate concepts throughout all aspects of events. Loved it! —Director of Meetings & Events, California Chamber of Commerce
