Why is it that certain event planners thrive and others, well\u2026.don\u2019t?<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s face it, your personality will always play a major role in your overall success. <\/span><\/p>\n

There are three distinct personality types that the event production business<\/span>\u00a0attracts. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses. And while there is no single set of characteristics that \u201cembodies\u201d what a successful event professional looks like, if you can find ways to leverage each personality type while planning your next corporate event<\/a>,\u00a0you’ll surely set yourself up for success.<\/span><\/p>\n

So, what are these personality types and how do they work?\u00a0This is what you need to know.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Creatives<\/h2>\n

You’re the\u00a0outside-of-the-box thinker. <\/span><\/p>\n

If you’re a Creative,\u00a0you\u00a0have an uncanny ability find inspiration from unlikely sources.\u00a0You\u00a0especially thrive with creative design and aren\u2019t afraid of getting your\u00a0hands dirty to turn a small idea into a massive hit.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, your organizational skills could use some work. You\u00a0likely will never become\u00a0the \u201cgo to\u201d person to manage budgets and finances. You\u00a0can also struggle with punctuality<\/a>, conflict, mishaps and high-pressure situations.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The Anal Retentives\/Details Oriented<\/h2>\n

You’re the one to depend on to\u00a0take good notes and keep things organized.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a\u00a0detail-focused individual, you will always be on time (early is on time, on time is late!), on schedule and will help to ensure everyone around you\u00a0stays on\u00a0task. You\u00a0can also be trusted to be budget-conscious<\/a> and to make decisions based on common sense.<\/span><\/p>\n

Your organization muscles probably flex more than your creative muscles though. You may also have a tendency to micromanage and may work a little too hard<\/i> as evidenced by the many sleepless nights\u00a0you\u00a0put in.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Adrenaline Junkies<\/h2>\n

You probably know if you’re this\u00a0personality type by its name alone.<\/span><\/p>\n

You\u00a0can deal with tough deadlines, high expectations, (constructive) criticism of your work and still not miss a beat. You\u2019ll find a way to power through and get things done while showing few signs of wear. You have great creative abilities and your enthusiasm is unmatched. You\u00a0can\u00a0rise to any and every challenge thrown your\u00a0way. <\/span><\/p>\n

But, you\u00a0may overlook details from time to time and your common sense can waiver as well.<\/span><\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve been involved in the event industry in any capacity, I\u2019m willing to bet you\u2019ve come across each of these personality types at one point or another. Chances are, you highly resonate with one of them too.<\/span><\/p>\n

Understand your strengths and weaknesses and align yourself with people who compliment you well. <\/span><\/p>\n
