Blog 2: Topic Choice

a. My topic is event planning because I encountered a couple of problems in search of a mentor with my original idea for a topic in pastry chef. Event planning was my second option either way so I didn't mind changing my topic in the end. I find it fun to plan a party or a gathering of people. It can be stressful to organize and plan at times, but the outcomes of events make it all worth it in the end.

b.

• IPoly Citizen: I plan to help and work with my peers as much as I can because not only were we trained to do so for the past three years, but also because that's a big part of event planning due to variety of people one has to interact with.
• Effective Communicator: I plan to listen and respect what both my peers and teachers say to me. This will help me train myself to be able to work well with customers that go into the banquet hall and be able to have their event turn out the way they wanted it.
• Effective Learning: I plan to express creativity, be prepared at all times, and solve a problem as best I can. These are all important factors of event planning because without these qualitites, you would be a horrible coordinator when planning a customers event.
• Effective User of Technology: With the use of technology, I can be that much more organized with a customers information. In addition to that, the use of internet allows me to search for busnisses that provide supplies or services that the customer needs at a price they can pay.
