SUMMARY:Chapter ByLaws Vote
DESCRIPTION:Southeast Chapter Members – your VOTE is needed on proposed changes to our chapter bylaws \n  \nDuring the recent PCMA Southeast Chapter Summer Strategic Board Planning Session\, the board agreed that the current three-year term for a board director is too long of a commitment and deters volunteers from applying to serve on the board. The board also agreed that a one-year term is too short for the role of Secretary/Treasurer. \nPlease see bold areas in red below of the current bylaws versus the proposed changes\, you can also click on the link to see the full chapter bylaws: \n  \nCurrent Bylaws   \nSection 3.

(c) Officers and directors shall serve without compensation\, although the Board may in its sole discretion\, reimburse officers and directors for reasonable expenses incurred in the performance of their duties associated with their office. Such reimbursements to be made only upon submission of proper documentation\, including receipts for such expenses. \n  \nSuggested change to Bylaws: \nSection 3. TENURE OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.

Recently\, she was nominated as one of the “Smart Women in Meetings” by Smart Meetings magazine. \n  \nTracy Vessillo – President\,  Puff ‘n Stuff Catering  \nTracy spent his first years with Compass Group as an Executive Chef for Flik International providing service to many prestigious firms in New York City. His well rounded culinary background is what gave Tracy the platform to grow from Executive Chef to Foodservice Director to District Manager in a short period of time. From here\, he was given the rewarding task of leading operations for disaster relief services when many folks were left without food and shelter as a result of Hurricanes Katrina\, Rita and Wilma. With a successful outcome\, Tracy was given the role of Vice President for Outtakes\, Compass’ retail business solution. Growing that business $80M in two short years\, Tracy was then given the responsibility of all retail development and operations\, representing $500M for Compass Group. \nCompass then asked Tracy to take over their Eurest\, B&I division in the Gulf States. As a regional vice president\, Tracy grew that revenue from $53M to $98M in 3 short years. In May of 2017\, he moved to Los Angeles to take over as president of Wolfgang Puck Catering. Tracy put $50M in the new business pipeline for Wolfgang just before Covid hit. Since then\, $35M of the $50M has been closed on. The diverse and successful path of Tracy’s career gives him the pleasure of taking on a president’s role with Puff n’ Stuff Catering where he is ready to continue his positive influence on revenue growth\, team building and overall leadership. \n  \nEric Blanc\, CMP –  Deputy Director\, Orange County Convention Center \nEric Blanc\, Sr.\, CMP is the Orange County Convention Center’s (OCCC) Deputy Director of Sales\, Marketing\, Event Management and Exhibitor Services. With more than 25 years of experience in event management and convention center sales\, Blanc oversees the strategic planning and selling of the OCCC. \nBlanc was the Director of Sales\, Marketing\, and Convention Services at the Tampa Convention Center\, where he spent 15 years of his career. He held various positions during his time there including Event Services Supervisor and Senior Events Coordinator. \nBlanc’s background spans across various top organizations in the industry including The Freeman Companies and GES Expositions\, where he was a National Sales Manager for both companies. Blanc graduated from Florida State University with a Bachelor of Science degree in Business – Marketing and holds a certificate from the IAAM Public Assembly Facility Management School at Oglebay \n  \nMichael Farrell – President & Co-Founder at Redstory \nMichael Farrell’s history in live events and entertainment began over 35 years ago. As a major label recording and touring artist and Graduate of the Middle Tennessee State University Recording Industry Management Program\, Michael fully understands the difference between a live event and an immersive\, branded experience. \nIn support of his role as President & Co-Founder at Redstory\, Michael fosters strategic customer relationships to develop deep knowledge and understanding of client requirements\, needs\, and budgets while demonstrating the organizations product and service offerings. Michael’s detailed leadership across cross-functional teams provides external and internal project stakeholders’ ongoing support\, transformational advice and account oversight. \n  \n  \n  \nNavigating the impacts of legislation on site selection with panelists: \nBeth Surmont\, CMP-Fellow\, Social Offset \nBrenda Dempsey\, Nashville Music City \nRonny Coombs\, American Society of Nephrology \nStan Rubins\, Senior Corporate Counsel for Visit Orlando \nThere are many factors at play when selecting a site or destination for a group meeting.  Travel advisories and boycotts due to discriminatory legislation in some locales are impacting meeting planning and destinations in unique ways. This panel of experts will discuss ways to investigate impacts\, current policies\, and opportunities to incorporate social offsets to help you navigate decisions for future events. \n  \nThriving in Uncertainty with Beth Surmont\, CMP-Fellow \nIf the past few years have taught us anything\, it is that we can’t control what is going to happen\, but we can control our response to it. Exponential changes in technology combined with accelerated trends\, economic factors\, and mixed with shifts in behaviors all make for a complicated and unstable environment. The playbooks we’ve used no longer work as well; and the expectations of our audiences\, our partners\, and our organizations are higher than ever. Those who are waiting for things to go back to how they were will be left behind. The successful ones will learn how to look at the world differently\, measure risk in new ways\, and create flexible systems\, leaving them prepared to face whatever may come. \nBeth Surmont\, Vice President of Event Strategy & Design for 360 Live Media\, will share perspective on new event trends\, changing audience behaviors\, and how you can best prepare your team to manage uncertainty and position your organization for success. \n  \nCOMMUNITY SERVICE: \nThe PCMA Southeast Chapter supports youth education through literacy. As a part of our community service initiative in Orlando\, FL the PCMASE chapter will be donating books to the New Image Youth Center\, an after school and summer program for at-risk students in the Parramore neighborhood in Orlando\, FL. We ask that you bring 1-2 new or lightly used books for a K-12th grade reading level for donation. We suggest considering one of the 874 book titles that were banned in 2022 or one of the 11 most banned books of the 2022-2023 school year. \n  \nRecent Messaging on Travel Advisories: \nVisit Orlando \nOrlando has always been and will continue to be a diverse\, welcoming and inclusive community.   As the top travel destination in the country and longstanding leader in the travel industry\, our community has a history of welcoming all to our destination.   \nTravel and tourism positively impacts our community and plays a valuable role in ongoing engagement and dialogue. Visit Orlando will continue to encourage travel to our destination to drive progress and support hard-working small businesses.  \n  \nOrange County Mayor Jerry L. Demings \n“Orange County is open for business. Our residents represent a broad diaspora of cultures\, which makes us stronger as a society.  Please be assured our community values diversity and embraces inclusion. Hate is never welcome here. We look forward to working with the NAACP to reassure them and others that Orange County is a caring\, compassionate and welcoming community.” \nA joint statement was made Monday\, May 22nd by prominent black travel groups in regard to the travel advisory. \nBlack travel and tourism advocacy groups\, however\, say the advisory will hurt the people it’s supposed to help. By deterring travel\, Black travel and tourism businesses and underserved communities will lose out on visitors and spending\, said Future of Black Tourism\, Blacks in Travel & Tourism and the Black Travel Alliance in a joint statement on Monday. \n“We believe there is a better way to make a statement to [Florida Governor Ron DeSantis] beyond a travel advisory petitioning African Americans and people of color to stay away from Florida\,” the groups said. “Small Black businesses and marginalized communities certainly should not be the sacrificial lamb.” \nOur most diverse groups make up the heart and soul of our hospitality industry\, we want to ensure we as Orlando can continue to promote our cities uniquely diverse communities to those who share those same values. \n

SUMMARY:Atlanta Educational Luncheon
DESCRIPTION:Join us on August 4th at the Thompson Buckhead!  An enviable address in one of Atlanta’s most desirable neighborhoods – Buckhead.  The NEW Thompson Buckhead is an urban retreat that seamlessly blends modern innovation and influential design. \n \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \nSESSION DESCRIPTION: \n“It is not the strongest of the species that survives\, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is most adaptable to change.” Charles Darwin \nWhile the Metaverse is still considered in its infancy\, all experts agree that it will transform live events and that it will be the bridge between our digital and physical lives. Some important technological advancements have been made recently and multiple major players in the events industry are investing heavily in this new platform as it is deemed by most to be the next frontier for live events. Dive deeper into the Chapter and learn how to get involved by being a volunteer. Come ready to learn about increasing your value to the Chapter and the industry at our volunteer fair during the networking time prior to the lunch/educational session. \nLEARNERS OUTCOMES: \n*The Metaverse and its many uses\, virtual and hybrid events\, and why you should care about this next phase of the internet. \n*How you can prepare your organization for this transformative technology. \n*How the Metaverse can make your meeting accessible to a greater audience. \nSee Who’s Coming \nPRICE:  \nMember $40 \nNon-Member $55 \nStudent: $25 \nVIP Table of 8 $300 \nTIME: \n11 AM to 11:45 AM – Networking \n11:45 to Noon – Attendees seated for Lunch \n12:00 PM – 1:30 PM – Lunch with Key Note Speaker \nMEET OUR SPEAKER: \nKendra Nicholls\, CoreNet Global’s Strategic Content Manager\, has a diverse background in Journalism\, Media\, and Events. Kendra recently finished a master’s degree in International Event and Conference Management from the UK’s leading events programs at Sheffield Hallam University. Completing an events degree during a time when live events couldn’t be held was challenging\, however\, it opened new doors and led to an interest in virtual events\, and the use of AR/VR technology to make these virtual events more interactive and immersive.

SUMMARY:Student Insight Series
DESCRIPTION:The PCMA Student Insight Series aims to expose students to different aspects of the Business Events Industry and perspectives of working professionals at all career levels. \nThis month’s topic: “Negotiating the best contract and how to maintain lasting relationships.” \nThis session will be hands-on\, including a breakout portion. Come ready with your questions! \nPanel: \nMoira O’Brien has been with McCormick Place Convention Center\, currently managed by ASM Global\, since 2009. As the Director of Sales for McCormick Place since 2015\, Moira and her team secure events at the largest convention center in North America ranging from major city-wide conventions and trade shows\, Association and Corporate meetings\, public and consumer shows to smaller catering functions. Having worked as a National Sales Manager then Senior Sales Manager with McCormick Place Moira has managed all types of accounts and industry segments. \nPrior to McCormick Place\, Moira worked as an Executive Recruiter in the hospitality industry focusing on Leadership placements in both the hotel and restaurant communities. This was preceded by ten years working with a hospitality trade association managing membership\, sponsorship and trade show logistics plus five years in the hotel industry directly out of college where she earned a Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management\, all which prepared her well for her current role building relationships with customers\, the convention bureau and all our hospitality partners to host successful events at McCormick Place. \nIn 2020-21\, the COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted the global meetings and events industry. Moira is passionately committed to the continued recovery efforts at McCormick Place. McCormick Place was one of the first facilities to commit to the GBAC STAR™ Accreditation\, an independent review of our cleaning and business operations to reduce the spread of infectious diseases. Since being able to host large scale events again as of July of 2021\, we are thrilled many of our event organizers have been able to meet safely and successfully achieve their event’s missions. \nMoira lives in Chicago and is constantly exploring new restaurants in Chicago’s thriving culinary scene. She is a lifelong Chicago Cubs fan\, always hoping for late October baseball. Moira tries to relax with yoga and travel\, and still has many places to experience to her bucket list. \n \n\nMatt Radenbaugh has been working in hotel sales for 20 years\, first with the Drake Hotel and now with the Fairmont Chicago Millennium Park. Previous to that\, he was in the front office and convention services\, so he prides himself on knowing the ins and outs of hotel operations in order set realistic expectations for his clients and setting them up for a successful conference experience. He believes a group contract should be a “win-win” agreement\, in which both sides feel risks are shared and terms are fair. In his free time\, Matt enjoys spending time with his family and pursuing his passion of fishing all over the Chicagoland area. \n  \n \nMurray Ryan has served in the meetings and events industry for over 30 years.  Prior to joining the Encore family Murray worked in a variety of sales and marketing roles for leading industry firms including Hyatt\, Hilton\, Tourism Toronto\, and PRG.  Murray is a proud member of the Greater Midwest Chapter of PCMA\, having served on the Board of Directors in various years\, most recently serving as chapter President in 2018. \n  \n  \n \nJen Salerno is a 20-year veteran of the hospitality & events industry. Throughout her career\, Jen has worked with and consulted for many of the biggest trade shows in the country and specializes in strengthening the relationship between event planners and the hospitality community. \nToday\, she is owner of JTS Connect\, which provides live\, virtual and hybrid event host/emcee and moderating services. She is also host of The Room Block\, the podcast where hospitality and event professionals meet. Jen is passionate about solidifying the connections across our industry\, and is ready to connect your team or audience with ideas that inspire action. \n  \nLindsay Woike attended College at Eastern Illinois University and majored in Business Management with a minor in Hospitality. Had to complete an internship with my minor and headed to Hilton Head South Carolina to Vagabond Cruise where myself and a team of interns ran the operations for the sightseeing and excursion cruise operator. After graduation I started a job at Hyatt Regency Deerfield as the Assistant Outlets Manager. About 7 months into my position\, Hyatt sold the hotel and promoted me to Assistant Banquet Manager at the Hyatt Regency Louisville where they moved me to. From there I found my love for meetings and events. After 3 years with Hyatt\, I moved back to Chicago and started work with the American College of Healthcare Executives as their Meeting Planner. After a few years with ACHE I was promoted to Senior Meeting Planner and was with ACHE a total of 7 years. While I loved working with associations\, it was time to grow my career and learn about being a manger. I found my next job with CNO Financial as the Manager of Operations for Training and Development. During this time COVID came and my job changed quite a bit and we all had to pivot with the times. After 3 years with CNO Financial I moved to my current job which is Manager\, Meetings and Event Experiences with Institute of Food Technologists this past December. I am now planning\, with my amazing team\, to put on a show for 18\,000 people in person and 2\,000 virtually with my team at Institute of Food Technologists.

In the Orlando region Brandon began to cut his teeth in the freelance AV market\, after some time and growth he was found by Visual Aids Electronics and was hired on as their National Lighting Director. \nIn this role Brandon was finally able to focus on being a “creative\,” while still implementing the plan in the field. Leading larger and more complex crews to get his designs built\, led Bandon to eventually serve as Project Manager for several General Session styled events. \nIn a role which required more leadership\, Brandon started helping the Sales Team with early-stage RFP designs and began following clients from the first proposal to and through the event. In 2012 Brandon was named VAE Manager of the Quarter and Manager of the Year. Brandon kept his position when VAE was acquired by PSAV until his departure in 2015 for Orlando Productions. \nAt his current role Brandon has been apart of a lot of growth for OPAV\, including the forming of true sales and project management teams and senior management that helps drive the company’s direction. After Tony Brinkman joined the ranks of OPAV the two of them helped rebrand the company from Orlando Productions into OPAV to give a more national presence. \nBrandon lives now in Nashville\, TN with his girlfriend Megan and their 3 furry babies Pedal\, Shade\, and Jaffa. \n \nTony Brinkman\, Vice President of Business Development\nTony began his career in the Hospitality/Audiovisual Production industry in May of 2001 as an AV Technician for Visual Aids Electronics (VAE) at the Hyatt Regency Cleveland. He has always been driven by relationships and enjoys meeting new people and forming bonds. Service and leadership have been engrained in Tony since he was 13 years old working for his hometown local school district. \nTony was quickly promoted to be the Manager of Audiovisual Services at the Hyatt Regency Cleveland and utilized his joy of building relationships to more than triple his budget figures via outside sales across the United States. That led VAE to promote Tony to be the Director of Audiovisual Services at the Hyatt Regency San Francisco Airport and thus began an 11 year tenure in the San Francisco Bay Area. \nExceeding budgetary goals and customer service numbers led Tony to the Regional Manager role for VAE in the West. He ultimately had 9 properties that he was responsible for before VAE was sold to PSAV. \nAfter 13 years with VAE\, the sale gave Tony a reason to look to move back towards home and the Eastern side of the country. He served as Vice President\, Rental and Staging for two years at Visual Sound in Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania before joining the OPAV Family. \nTony is a family man and enjoys spending time with his wife Shannon and their four children when he is not on the road. He is one of our remote Family Members and the Brinkmans reside in Syracuse\, New York.
