Scope & Vision

Before you come in to meet with Student Life and begin the planning process, we recommend that you reflect on how you can leverage this experience to practice your management skills and ensure a successful outcome.

Framing questions:

• What is the overall vision and purpose of the event, and why are you choosing to take it on?
• What outcomes do you want for yourself and for your attendees, and what will a successful event look like?
• Who are your key stakeholders, and what should each of them gain from the event—immediately and in the long term?
• How will you and your team work together effectively to bring the event to life and stay motivated throughout the process?
• How do you plan to meet your goals and expectations, and how will you measure whether you achieved them?
