Abstract
This study will establish a working guide on how to implement a strategic meeting management guide for meeting planners who are employed by small to mid-size companies. This comprehensive manual will detail processes of how to accurately measure meeting and travel spend, gain cross-company leverage and apply methods for making meetings purpose-driven. This study will incorporate best practices as established by industry standards which will be specifically tailored to meet the needs of planners in smaller firms. The desired outcome will be a solid and manageable guide that planners can use to secure their role as a strategic partner to the executive team and protect the company’s bottom line.
