Events that go off without a hitch or at least without glitches visible to anyone other than the organizers
There’s much satisfaction to be gained from successfully pulling off an event of any scale (e.g., a surprise party, a family reunion, a major fundraiser or a professional event).
However, the larger events require skills galore. One must balance planning and project management skills with interpersonal savoir faire and in some cases even a solid understanding of workplace dynamics.
A shout out to Cindy G. for so aptly juggling all of the above with the added pressure of protocols and heightened security for the Governor General’s visit to the National Research Council in Nova Scotia. His Excellency joined NRC president John MacDougall and researchers for a tour of a world-class facility to transform algae into fuel.
A second ‘woot’ goes to Cindy G. and Lauren K. for organizing the 10th anniversary edition of Discovery Day, NRC’s largest science outreach event in Halifax. All that planning made for a smooth day of science fun for the students, teachers and volunteers.
AWESOME!
