In the chaos of live events, it's often the caterers, planners, and creative teams who get stuck fixing what others missed—while still trying to deliver an exceptional client experience. This session equips event professionals with the language, policies, and workflows they need to protect their process, assert their scope, and stop absorbing the emotional labor of the entire team. Whether you're on-site or behind the scenes, this talk gives you the tools to work collaboratively without becoming the cleanup crew.
