Managing Convention Centers

Prashant Raturi

Synopsis

"Managing Convention Centers" helps improve performance through data-driven decision making. We argue that many convention centers rely on intuition rather than data analysis. Our book emphasizes the importance of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) specific to the convention center industry, beyond just financial metrics.
We offer practical advice for convention center staff at all levels, from leadership to supervisors, and also target students and hospitality professionals. Our book explores various KPIs, such as business traveler count, sales and marketing metrics, earned service revenue, and operating expenses. We provide formulas and explain how to interpret the data.
Beyond financials, we explore KPIs related to security, guest behavior, employee safety, and data privacy. We offer best practices and highlight potential challenges. Our book also covers facility condition, capital spending, human resources, and sustainability, all through the lens of KPIs and data analysis.
Finally, we provide guidance on presenting KPIs effectively and implementing a KPI program within a convention center. "Managing Convention Centers" is an essential resource for anyone looking to enhance the performance and efficiency of convention centers.

"Exhilarating." —Daniel Pink, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Drive, To Sell is Human, and The Power of Regret

Brave Together is a powerful book that can transform the lives of leaders, creators, or anyone looking to shape the future. It comes from the thought leaders who helped Apple shift the culture from "thinking different" to "working different together".

How did Apple overcome a culture of secrecy? How did Pixar out-innovate Disney? Why do companies kill creativity? Does Shark Tank teach us something about the way we pursue success that isn't true?

We've been told that working harder and smarter is the only way to succeed in business and life. But it's not true. Hustle culture is causing burnout and pain in our lives, making us feel divided. What if instead we focused on working creatively with others? And asked How can we shape cultures people love? There is hope in co-creation.

Brave Together is a deep exploration into how we can live and lead as co-creators, filled with unexpected stories, powerful principles, and a future-oriented framework. The authors have pressure-tested this work with startups and Fortune 500s—including Apple. Coaching leaders how to reimagine their approach to culture, converting creative ideas into billion-dollar solutions with the help of these patterns:

The Mirror Test: Take ownership of your reality and your creative identity.

The Hero's Sacrifice: Break free of ego to connect with others in inspiring ways.

Become the Future: Create a synthesis, manifesting the best in mind, heart, and spirit.

Chris Deaver and Ian Clawson have written a handbook that challenges the status quo approach to leadership, work, and culture. It offers the path to a bright future that isn't self-made but shared.
