The world of event planning can be alluring and dangerous at
once-exotic locales, wining and dining, and people traveling
without their spouses. In such situations the line between business
and pleasure blurs and the nature of relationships gets cloudy.
With a thoughtless act or a less-than-tactful word, long-lasting
business relationships can be ruined forever.
Beyond that, budgets are on the chopping block and competition
for business is tight. In that environment, people often cut not
just financial corners, but the ethical ones, too. There's a fine
line between innocent perks and inappropriate gifts or kickbacks.
Event planners today must navigate a minefield of potentially
sticky situations that can easily blow up in their face. Without a
professional code, lines of acceptable behavior are easily crossed.
And what you do personally can hurt you professionally.
