Top 11 Challenges Corporate Event Managers Face [Infographic]
September 24, 2018
In July, Corporate Event News conducted a reader survey which asked corporate event professionals to select and rank the top challenges they face on the job.
Event professionals are still being asked to do more, with less. The number one challenge reported by the majority of readers was “low budget, high expectations.”
Most event managers work far more than 40 hours a week. Early mornings, evenings, weekends — all par for the course. Between deadlines, meetings and travel it can seem impossible to take time off. Therefore, it’s not surprising that trying to find enough time to get everything done came in at number 3.
Corporate social responsibility and sustainability are becoming a greater focus area for events. Therefore, we decided to make our list a top 11 rather than top 10 in order to include the growing challenge of planning events that are more environmentally friendly.
We used the survey data to create an infographic. Read on to see all of the challenges and how they rank!
