      "Flexibility" and "adaptability" are my middle names. As you know I work with meeting planners, and we are always in a state of change, whether that is increased or decreased attendance, changing rooms or setups last minute, or the need to modify agendas. In fact, the only thing we can count on in the meetings industry is how we need to be fluid and open to unexpected adjustments."
