Why student executives fall apart:

• Losing the core purpose of why the committee or organization exists

• Joining to pad their resume and stop thinking about providing content

• Finding it tough to commit to something they may not be paid for

Ike’s advice for anticipating peoples interests:

• COMMUNICATING! Figure out who you are providing value for

• Learn from previous events, what went wrong and what went right.

• Put yourself in a person’s shoes.

Here is Ike’s checklist for a successful conference:
