| Introduction | I am a highly experienced event director and for the past thirteen years have been involved in managing, developing and directing a range of conferences, events and training programmes from half day seminars for 10 people to two day international conferences for over 7000. I have also provided logistical advice to other organisations who have tailored similar models of delivery to meet their own specific needs. After almost 24 years with Learning and Teaching Scotland, I left on 29 September 2006 to set up my own business, Think Different Events. Think Different Events provide the logistical expertise, resources and specialist skills that enable clients to develop and deliver successful events. Working closely with clients throughout the process we keep them informed of progress towards agreed key milestones and offer the flexibility to meet changing demands. |
