An
event like the Chinese New Year banquet can only be successful with good
planning, proper execution and the ability to make adjustments as the program
progress. We
had a group of people preparing and planning days and weeks before the evening
started. And even a bigger group of people helping and making sure the banquet
goes as planned.
With
a new venue, there were many unknowns and it was great to see the adjustments
done to ensure a successful night. There
will always be issues that in retrospect we could have handled differently.
Growth is built on learning from success and failure.
What’s
important is to make sure we are learning from the past and not experiencing
the same year after year. Growth from success or failures will only happen if we actually do something to fix it next time!
