Accelerate@HHL 2022: Leaving My Comfort Zone
Those who know me know that I have been doing ProjectWizards for 20 years and Merlin Project for almost 18 years. So everyone can easily imagine that I know a lot of people in the business. No matter if I show up at an Apple event, or a project management event, I already meet the first known people right at the entrance. That's nice, it gives me a good feeling and it's fun. That's how I know that the years of work have paid off and that the network I've built up is working. Because people help each other, they exchange ideas. And even if you don't do business directly with each other, sooner or later it pays off for both of us in some form or another.

And this comfort zone became bigger and bigger for me. Of course, no trips took place during Covid-19, and the urge to attend online community meetings became more and more suppressed.

Event
Whether planning, designing and implementing a theme evening or organizing a trip to motivate employees, the range of tasks in the event industry is diverse. Events enable and promote the meeting of people, establish personal contacts and bonds, arouse emotions and thus create a positive mood.
The range of activities extends from artist selection, room booking and idea generation to the preparation of the schedule. The bigger an event is and the more people are involved, the more important is the concrete strategy for a target-oriented organization. The work includes varied appointments, exciting tasks and diverse clients.
On Mac in the office or on iPad on-site at the event location, Merlin Project is the perfect companion for the event organizer, event manager, event technician and anyone else who works in this industry.
