Purpose of a Pre-Convention Meeting.

Please give me a heads up on:

Imagine that you are the Convention Services Manager for a major convention center - the Fort Worth Convention Center. You have a group arriving in two weeks that requires special attention because it is a city-wide convention that will bring in millions of dollars in economic impact for the community. This is a high-profile convention that could lead to more conventions with the same potential economic impact. Consider your scenario and answer the following questions in full details: 1. How would you convey the importance of this upcoming group during the pre-con meeting?

2. What staff members would you include in this meeting, and what would their roles be in ensuring the success of this meeting? 3. How would you organize a resume to ensure that all details are included for the group?

4. How would you organize a banquet event in order to make sure that the culinary staff, the meetings set up staff and other key personnel could handle a group function without your direction?

5. "All public space may be function areas, depending on the group and its needs." What is meant by the statement? What other areas can be used to host functions?
