Imagination, How to See Beyond the Horizon of Your Eyes

Creativity isn't just a nice-to-have skill—it's the competitive advantage that transforms good event professionals into exceptional ones. This interactive session reconnects you with your innate imaginative capacity through practical techniques and exercises you can apply immediately.
 
Discover how to harness imagination as the fuel for creative problem-solving, whether you're conceptualizing entirely new events, developing fresh themes that resonate with evolving audiences, identifying untapped markets, or reimagining existing programs with renewed purpose and perspective. Learn systematic approaches to break through creative blocks, generate innovative solutions, and cultivate the kind of thinking that keeps your events—and your career—ahead of the curve.
 
Walk away with actionable practices to strengthen your creative thinking muscles and the confidence to see possibilities others miss.


Learning Objectives:

  1. Apply at least three specific techniques to activate imaginative thinking when developing event concepts, themes, or marketing strategies.
  2. Evaluate existing events and services through a creative lens to identify opportunities for innovation and reimagination.

  3. Demonstrate practical methods to overcome creative blocks and generate fresh perspectives in professional event planning scenarios.

  4. Integrate imagination-based practices into regular workflow to enhance problem-solving and concept development capabilities.

We're thrilled to announce a game-changing registration offer for all planners at our January event! Whether you're an MPIRMC member or not, you can now attend for just $25 – and that gets you access to BOTH the educational program AND the networking reception!
