Something we think about A LOT at akire is how to deliver a consistent Return On Experience, or ROE. It's more important to us than the typical metric, ROI. For those who don't live and breathe event production, ROE can be an elusive concept, but fortunately for you, we have the perfect example of ROE: Taylor Swift.. From her 4D stage setups to her dynamic choreography and flawless vocals, every aspect of Taylor's performances is meticulously crafted to deliver a return on experience like no other. During her Eras Tour, Taylor not only took fans on a musical journey through her iconic eras but also encouraged them to become active participants in the spectacle. Fans are showing up dressed in attire representing their favorite Taylor Swift eras, swapping friendship bracelets with fellow Swifties, and attending the concert multiple times to relive the magic whenever possible. Taylor's Eras Tour isn't just about the music; it's about building a community of passionate fans who share a love for her artistry and the unforgettable memories created at her concerts. We "taylor" (see what we did there?) our ROE for clients based on the goals of their event. We know we've succeeded when our clients hear from participants that they learned more than expected, had a paradigm-shifting experience, or hear months (and sometimes years) later that their participants are STILL talking about the event. #eventprof #eventsindustry #eventexperts #corporateevents #corporateevent #eventproduction #eventmanagement #eventplanner #eventinspiration #events #memorableevents

I have such a wide taste in music. Like seriously, if we've never talked music, we should. This live performance by Black Sabbath from 1970 is so amazing. Thanks to Greg Dohler for bringing it up in conversation over lunch today. Greg's a great photographer and friend, and it was great to commiserate about this awesome performance. What does this have to do with business? Black Sabbath was panned by the critics of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Rolling Stone said they were "Like Cream! But worse." But watch this film, and you'll see that from a performance point of view, they're amazing. They were operating on a different level and totally misunderstood by the prevailing opinions. Isn't that our dream as business owners? To press beyond, to be on the cutting edge of our industry? To innovate and grow? Final thought: if my dream as a business owner had a soundtrack, I'd definitely want Bill Ward playing the drums. Good gravy!

On this episode of Arts Engines with Aaron Dworkin, he speaks to Eduardo Delgado, Public Programs Director of the New World Symphony, who shares how the symphony harnesses evolving technology to realize its artistic vision of fostering meaningful connections with the community. For Eduardo, community engagement isn't just about outreach—it's about building genuine connections in public settings. By collaborating with trusted community leaders, the symphony seeks to bridge the gap and cultivate authentic relationships with the communities they serve. As Eduardo notes, trust is earned, not assumed, and partnerships must be approached with humility and mutual respect. One shining example of the New World Symphony's commitment to accessibility is the "Wallcast" program. What began as a modest endeavor with concerts on TV screens has blossomed into full-screen projections on building walls, offering free concerts in the park—a testament to their dedication to breaking down barriers and bringing music to all. But innovation doesn't stop there. Recognizing the need for inclusivity and diversity in their audience, the symphony pioneered the "Mobile Wallcast" initiative. By taking the concert experience to communities, they're ensuring that music transcends physical boundaries and resonates with diverse audiences across Miami. At its core, this is more than just about music—it's about understanding and embracing the spaces where art breathes and evolves. Partnerships, Eduardo emphasizes, must be reciprocal, honoring the excellence that exists in every corner of our communities. Yet, we must tread with care and mindfulness. The New World Symphony, like any other organization, must be committed to entering communities where their presence is welcome, ensuring that projects and programs are co-created and mutually beneficial. Change takes time—but the rewards are worth it. #Arts #Culture #Music #Programming #Community #CommunityEngagement #AudienceEngagement #NewWorldSymphony #Miami #Florida #Technology #Artistry #Collaboration #Accessibility #Innovation #Trust #Change

The white line below is where the main event took place. The other shapes - square and triangle - are what COMPLETE the performance. Whenever you present, YOU are that white line… BUT!We can't forget the other shapes. --------- THE WHITE LINE: This is where 4 incredibly talented African American women stood to perform. They stole the show Sunday night, singing a collection from the great jazz music of Sarah Vaughan, (unknown to me before this night). 📍 This is you. when you present, are you ready to command the stage, steal the show, rouse the audience and blend with the proverbial orchestra that accompanies you? THE WHITE SQUARE: Holy cow, without the square… The performers are dead in the water. This was for me, the BBC Orchestra and they were magnificent. They supported the singers and made them look and feel and sound incredible. 📍 This is your slide deck or script. When your deck and script are beautifully written… Beautifully composed… They support you like none other. What if the orchestra sounded bad, ugly? The same is true for your slides. If you don't have beautiful slides, you don't have a beautiful performance. 📍THE WHITE TRIANGLE: This of course is the most important part of the photo and your event. Everything must be about the audience, as it was for us on Sunday. The whole event's purpose is for US. The whole purpose of YOUR white line and your square is for your triangle. Who is in your triangle? Is it investors, internal stakeholders, partnerships, your own team? --- To pull off a magnificent event, all 3 must be in flow. "In flow" means each shape has thought about the other, been considered in totality, and developed with precision. -/----------- That's what we do here at On Point Communications, LLC. We help people balance these shapes their own messages and their own Royal Albert Hall. DM us today. We have openings for 1:1 exec coaching programs. We are scheduling Q1 trainings and annual meetings for teams. #PresentationSkills #Team #AnnualMeeting #Innovation #ExecutivePresence #ScienceAndTech #Events
