This poses the challenge: How can emerging professionals’ level up to meet the competitive demands of the changing job economy. Simultaneously, they need to outpace perceived threats to the meeting and events space such as automation and artificial intelligence and position themselves as not just a strategic business professional. </p> <p>To maintain their place in the workforce of the future, meeting professionals must lean into the opportunity to be strategists, brokers of people and ideas through the design and execution of experiences that directly impact the bottom lines of their employers. To accomplish this, the world is embracing a new mindset widely referred to as critical skills (formerly known as “soft” skills). </p> <p>Even before the onset of the pandemic, Meeting Professionals International has been examining the role of these critical skills, more notably denoted “future skills” by the World Economic Forum, which ensure that meeting professionals outpace the growth of automation and ascend to the role of business strategists with significant impact on organizational revenue. </p> <p>Fueled by the need to provide the meeting and event professional community with the tools they need to quickly upskill, MPI has sought to examine the concept of future skills in a qualitative research project. After connecting with dozens of senior executives, from 30+ organizations, a clear pattern emerged suggesting a critical role and need for these future skills, particularly for the success of emerging professionals. </p> <p>With that in mind, Meeting Professionals International has developed the Emerging Meeting Professional (EMP) designation to help new or emerging professionals solidify their competency in critical skills. Students will engage in a variety of learning methods to ensure that they understand and can apply these critical skills in their jobs. </p> </div> <a class="collapsed classMore" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapseSummary" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapseSummary"></a> </div> <div class="Mainbody2" > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><hr /></div> </div> <div class="Mainbody2" > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><p><strong><span style="font-size:20px;color:#000000;">Did you know there is an honors society for hospitality students?</span></strong></p><p><a href="https://www.chrie.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=236&Itemid=174" target="_blank" data-sf-ec-immutable=""><img src="https://mpi.org.imgeng.in/images/default-source/partner-logo/chrie.webp?sfvrsn=51f17c55_1" alt="CHRIE" sf-size="11250" /></a></p></div> </div> <div class="Mainbody2" > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><hr /></div> </div><div class="row cap bg-color" data-sf-element="Row"> <div id="Content_C772_Col00" class="sf_colsIn col-xs-12 col-xs-offset-0" data-sf-element="Column 1" data-placeholder-label="Content Block Goes Here"> </div> </div> <div class="Mainbody2 padding-sm-bottom" > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><p><span style="color:#000000;font-size:20px;"><strong>More Career Starters Courses</strong></span></p><span style="font-size:17px;"></span></div> </div><div class="row cap Mainbody2" data-sf-element="Row"> <div id="Content_C733_Col00" class="sf_colsIn col-sm-2 col-xs-12" data-sf-element="Column 1" data-placeholder-label="Column 1"> <div > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><p class="card-img" ;border-radius:="" 10px;="" "=" "><a href="https://www.mpi.org/education/certificate-programs/emergency-preparedness-for-events "><span data-sfref="[images|OpenAccessDataProvider]6b61f827-90c6-6615-9a9b-ff0100288468" class="sf-Image-wrapper"><img src="https://mpi.org.imgeng.in/images/default-source/test-images/certificate-hero/emergency-preparedness-for-events.jpg?sfvrsn=ca79e5a_0" alt="Emergency-Preparedness " title="Emergency-Preparedness " data-displaymode="Original" /></span></a></p><h5 style="font-size:16px;margin-left:20px;"><span data-sfref="[images|OpenAccessDataProvider]ab0a6e7b-c6cd-437d-be4c-002e60021f1b " class="sf-Image-wrapper " style="font-family:roboto;"></span></h5></div> </div> </div> <div id="Content_C733_Col01" class="sf_colsIn col-sm-7 col-xs-12" data-sf-element="Column 2" data-placeholder-label="Column 2"> <div class="careerstarters" > <div class="sfContentBlock sf-Long-text" ><p style="line-height:90%;margin-left:3px;"><strong><span style="color:#000000;font-size:medium;font-family:ProximaNovaA-Regular;">Emergency Preparedness for Events</span></strong></p><p style="line-height:100%;margin-left:3px;"><strong><span style="color:#000000;font-size:medium;font-family:ProximaNovaA-Regular;"></span></strong><span style="font-family:ProximaNovaA-Regular;">Your No. 1 role as a meeting professional is ensuring the security of the people you bring together.
