Events and occasions are an integral part of human life. We simply cannot bypass them as they touch almost all aspects of our social existence. Birthday celebrations, social gatherings, engagements and weddings are events we celebrate at the personal level. During academic years there are school events such as annual day functions, inter and intra school contests, sports day celebrations, followed by college and university level festivals. In the sphere of work, there are annual general meetings, exhibitions, marketing campaigns, conferences, product launches and brand development activities. Other events such as fashion shows, cultural programs, talent hunt shows, promotional campaigns, religious gatherings and so on also play an important role in our life. And what’s more, all of us have been a part of these events from time to time. We either organize these events or take part in the show. Either ways we want these occasions to go on as per our expectations and in doing so we often seek professional help. However, we do not pay much heed to the people who assiduously put in their effort and creative talent to make these events memorable and successful. They are the event managers. Event management is a multifaceted activity. Major constituents of this profile include creativity, meticulous planning, relationship management, advertising and marketing and much more, all rolled into one seamlessly choreographed process. Events, conferences and so on. Talented youngsters who want to leave their mark in this industry have numerous avenues. One of the professions that have become popular and gained international recognition is the arena of event management. The book is intended to be a ready reckoner for teachers who opt to impart knowledge to the students in event management. The desire to compile text came from the fact that not much literature on the same could be got from books. Since the college has incorporated this subject as part of a value addition package to students, I considered it worthwhile to put forth my views on the subject. The book basically starts with understanding event categories that are in vogue. It includes the need for event management, the five c’s of events, event designing and event marketing.

The content of the book has been strengthened by the experiences drawn in this regard through my indirect involvement with the events of social nature. Event management is an industry that is on the move. An exponential growth in events such as talent-hunt competitions, music concerts, fashion shows, academic functions, exhibitions, trade fairs, religious gatherings and the like have fuelled the demand for talented event managing personnel. The demand for creative and result oriented event managers is going to continue in the near future. Off late our country has started getting more and more media coverage and recognition abroad.

We hope that this book serves as a useful guide to the students for exploring avenues to events as part of their professional or personal lives. Contents : 1. Introduction to Event Management 2.

In this particular book I shall be attempting to describe the factual and the practical happenings in the professional life of 1st line managers, and such happings I am sure are sufficient self guides for not only the `new First Line Managers` but also for any professional life. Besides this, also mentioned in the book are few excerpts from the popular management books, which would help the firm, and the senior managers, who are in decision making position. Also this book will help the management students, who are pursuing their courses in management studies, on the practical aspect of the first line sales and man management. I would also try to confine myself with less and less headings and management jargons only as an attempt to shun from the book getting more scientific and theoretical rather than of practical use and implications of the facts: I am offering this book to the new first line managers and to some extent to the new second line managers in the sales institution, which may help the latter to guide train, manage and to control their first line managers. All in this book is based on my applied and practical experiences in the field force management in a few reputed organizations. Book Content of The New Manager 1. Manager-Why he is required and how should he be? 2. Manager (his Team) 3. Manager (The Becoming) 4. Manager (His Customers and the market) 5. Manager (His Performance in business and competition) 6. Manager (His Control) 7. Manager (Appraisals, Recruitment and Termination) Bibliography

This book is acompilation of the vaious cases presented by the participants on the occasion. BVIMR is of the strong opinion that these cases should not lie within the boundaries of the campus and would like to present the same to the student and academy community everywhere.It is good to have a management function and to facilitate thosewho have participated.But it feels much better to share the entire proceedings with the fraternity in education and the students who would like to benefit from the proceedings. A Number of management competitions do happen everywhere,but they do not become availale to those who are interested.BVIMR strongly believes in sharing the knowledge gained and hence this compilation of the case studies presented during paristhithi. These cases would benefit the teaching faculty in management institutions and they can take up these cases in the classroom, or the students,who can sit in a restaurant,read the case, discuss and benefit from the same.We sincerely hope that this book will find a place in every library of the management institutes in India and abroad Contents- PART-I : GENERAL MANAGEMENT 1.

Human beings are important resources to an organisation. Like other resources, they represent an investment whose development and utilisation require managing (i.e. planning, organisation, leadership and evaluation). In every organisation, human resources are a pivotal variable without which the assets are worthless.

It must team up closely with other departments in the company and partner with other organizations throughout its entire value-delivery system to provide superior value to customers. Thus, marketing calls upon everyone in the organization to 'think customer' and to do all they can to help create and deliver superior customer value and satisfaction. Discussion on marketing is followed by important areas` of Marketing Research, Channels of Distribution and Advertising. It also includes discussion on Production and Material Management.
