Abstract | This six-chapter guide suggests a new approach to describing the knowledge, competencies, and managerial roles inherent in planning effective conferences and institutes. Chapter 1 introduces the many roles of the conferences and institutes program planner and discusses program formats and what makes conference programs unique learning events. Chapter 2 explores more traditional planning models, describes effective program planners as a unique blend of manager-educators performing a series of managerial roles, and discusses the two platforms or bases upon which these managerial roles are built: a knowledge base and a competency base. Chapter 3 considers program planners as organizational interpreters who must relate their activities in the planning process to the milieu of internal and external missions, expectations, and limits. Chapter 4 explores the entrepreneurial role of the program planner: organizing, managing, and financial management. Chapter 5 focuses on the program planner as builder of effective relationships on several dimensions--with external publics, internal constituencies, service providers, and various levels of support staff and coworkers. Chapter 6 highlights three themes of the guide that shed light on the roles of the program planner: connection, collaboration, and credibility. (Contains 53 references.) (YLB) |
