Florida International University Interview a Shadow Planner Paper
Description
Make contact with a social planner (wedding or other type of social event) and spend at least a half-day with them to learn their responsibilities and routine. Since this is a shorter term, I will understand if you are unable to shadow them, but please take some time to speak to a planner on the phone to gather “intel”. The planner does not have to be Miami based. Your report is to include:
Business focus (size, price, full or day-of services)
Staff size
- Favorite event they have done
- Recommended vendors including contact info. If they won’t share this info, you should explain why.
- Rundown of the experience & activities you had with them (or spoke with them about)
- Outline of items learned/Take aways
- Don’t wait to the last minute on this one! It might take you some time to locate a planner willing to let you shadow. Note that while due by October 6, this may be completed and turned in at any time. No “gang shadowing” please – this is to be an individual assignment. Reports usually run anywhere between 3 to 6 pages double-spaced. Submission by doc or docx only.
- Purpose: Observe how an actual social event is coordinated from behind the scenes, and provide an opportunity for one-on-one questions and answers with a professional in the field. You do not have to work an actual event for this assignment.
