Do you know how to make a good presentation? It’s critical to the success of your event that presentations go well. It’s a common occurrence for presentations to fall flat. We’ve all been there, you’re at a conference, you’ve been waiting for months to hear a particular speaker. When the time finally comes, the speaker is just lackluster. You find yourself feeling let down, wishing you wouldn’t have wasted your time, or even worse wishing you didn’t go to the event!

Today’s cybercriminal only needs one piece of information to wreak havoc with meeting planners - an email password. Brought to you by: Cybercrime. We hear about it in some way every day.

And then, there are those “other” people. They’re not always the most pleasant individuals to deal with because, like you, many are traveling on business. Cranky, tired and ragged around the edges, they’re sometimes challenging.
