Looks promising (I Think !)
6 April 2008
Format:Paperback
I've quickly flipped through it. Read couple pages on what the methods and strategies of the event industry.
Pros: It has case studies ! So "theoretical" and "practical"; Kudos !
Cons: Its mainly based on the British industry as far as I read. Doesnt quite give me the international perspective in a good grasp...
PS: I like the tables where they discuses the average salary of the event-executive, event manager, and event director. Search the book, Its page 245 (Salary Levels).
Overall. 7.5/10
