If you host events, “hybrid” events are becoming more and more common. But in your organization, what would it mean? Join Linda Howard as she takes you through what it means to host a “hybrid” event, identify some strategies for deciding when and how to evolve from fully virtual to hybrid to fully in-person events, and explore how to plan appropriately for various approaches.

Participants will:
• Explore a variety of definitions for what “hybrid” event might mean to you
• Examine your organization’s objectives when deciding between virtual, hybrid, and in-person workshop and event formats
• Identify strategies for planning and preparing for in-person vs hybrid events

Linda Howard, Howard Consulting LLC, helps association and nonprofit leaders design virtual meetings and events that are interactive and engaging so that participants feel more connected to the mission of the organization.

Linda is a Certified Virtual Facilitator (CVF), Certified Management
consultant (CMC), and Project Management Professional (PMP). She is former chapter president of the Institute of Management Consultants, National Capital Region, and currently serves on its leadership team.
