After reading about event budgets, I could see how it relates to our department quite a bit. I personally haven't had a lot of experience in the past with professional event budgeting so it was good to get an example of what steps to take in order to make one successfully. It really just comes down to understanding spreadsheets, knowing your math, and being realistic in your budgeting. It is something I will definitely carry through to my department and use in any way necessary.
Event planning is right up my alley. It helped remind me to keep several factors in mind while working on the bake sale. Thankfully I have been planning well ahead of time and it helps keep the unknown factors that could come into play from being serious issues. It is a great tool for those that haven't done much with event planning and every step can easily be carried through to whatever event you might be in charge of. The class is a big part of the event, so delegating roles to help as well as bringing in baked goods is how the event is even going to be possible. But the article mostly reinforced the idea that I am doing a good job so far but also helps me to keep in mind what I should be doing going forward.
