Previous Employment: Events the Liz Lean PR way: Every event I managed at the agency is benefited from bespoke creative treatment. Take Julia’s House Enchanted Garden Ball, regarded by many in Dorset as the social event of 2011. My expertise were utilised from start to finish, influencing the creative concept, production, logistics and council liaison.Bournemouth University’s Digital Hub event used a mix of new media to target specific audiences across two days of events. I sourced keynote speaker Tiffany St James, social media advisor to the Government, Channel 4 and The Guardian, and a live Twitter wall helped engage the audience before, during and after the event.Expertise in social media is key to modern day event management. One of the agencies great strengths is being able to encourage and educate our clients in using new platforms. Social media can extend the reach of your event and enhance the experience of those who attend. When you hit the ‘trending’ list as we did with Digital Hub, you know your event is making an impact both within the room and externally. That’s the ultimate goal.
