Meetings & Conventions: Short Cuts November 2001

November 2001
Short
Cuts:On the SpotHave your personal or professional goals changed in light
of September's tragedy?"I definitely make a point of speaking to my loved ones
more. My sense of stability has changed, even though I have worked
in social work and never sweated the small stuff. You quickly
realize your own problems are insignificant compared to those of
some others."
Darlene Pollard
Executive Assistant/Meeting Planner
Service Corp of Retired Executives
Washington, D.C.
"I'm not so sure my goals have changed, but I'm
concerned that there will be fewer meetings. I am worried about
traveling, too. If there is a positive side to this, it is that
people have been less selfish since the attacks. It's just a shame
it had to come about this way."
Tricia L. Wright, CMP
Event Coordinator
Concurrent Technologies Corp.
Johnstown, Pa.
"My goals will not change, as I enjoy what I do. Perhaps, I
wish I did not have to travel so much. If domestic airport security
improves, that will be a great thing."
