Event managementEvent management
“The process of analyzing, planning, co-ordinating, staging and evaluating an event.”

Social mediaSocial media
Hybrid of physical and digital engagement– A live event, plus “SOLOMO” (mobile, social, location-based services)
enables event engagement to begin virtually, before the event. • Facebook fan page, status updates, and Facebook apps. • Twitter, LinkedIn, Viadeo, Xing…
– If the social engagement online is so powerful, why bother with the live event at all?
• “The more digital we go, the greater the need for in-person interaction,”
No one really knows where this is going, but what is clear is that it is important for organizations to utilize the technology to remain “current”
32

finance the whole event or some of its part or provide some service either at subsidized rate or for free
This part will not be developped. In practice, it needs to be subcontracted

Working environment in FranceWorking environment in France
Relationships between employees are hierarchical and marked by formalism and rivalry
Punctuality is treated casually in France
Better not doing anything than making mistakes
There is no habit nor culture of working in group in France:
In the 3rd century, the Roman Emperor Tacite used to say that the Gauls will be unbeatable when they stop fighting with each other.
In companies as well as in the society, changes in France are seldom but violent.
42
Meetings in France : creativity, Meetings in France : creativity, controversy and fast-thinkingcontroversy and fast-thinking A French person strives for verbal
inventiveness, intellectual elegance, lively reasoning and rigorous analysis
Meetings often last too long, with more time spent on useless questions than on strategical issues
Meetings aim more at informing rather than at producing collective answers to problems
Business can be conducted during any meal, but lunch is best.
