Project management is the process of leading the work of a team to achieve all project goals within the given timeline. I develop and provide a Strategic Plan, Scope of Work with Milestones, and a Production Schedule with deliverables and their deadlines. This is created at the beginning of the development process by identifying the primary objectives for the scope, timeline, and budget.

Stakeholder management is a critical component to the successful delivery of any project or event. I am adept at focusing on and managing stakeholders who have a direct impact on your event. This is achieved by providing clear communication about what is needed and expected from each stakeholder. I ensure that stakeholders interests correlate to your event goals.

I review every detail with you to understand the objective of the event and develop a thorough understanding of the project so that I can put together an Event Strategic Plan and Scope of Work detailing deliverables and a timeline to achieve set milestones.
As an Event Architect, I will help you build and create meaningful and successful events that meet the objectives and follow the production schedule formulated for your specific project.
My skillset will see that our event results in an experience that sets the bar as a prototype for peers and industry competitors resulting in developing innovative and engaging events whether or digital platforms, in-person, or both!
I streamline workloads, test digital platforms, and review the ROS (Run of Show); so that when the event activation date arrives; final product exceeds expectations and leaves stakeholders and attendees fulfilled.
“In addition to great skill and experience, Candace brings keen insight and intuition about what will work best for each client. She is a great listener who quickly understood the unique character of our institution and connected us with exactly the type of support we needed (and within our budget!) to realize our vision for a virtual event. Organizations are in good hands with Events by Candace Michelle.”
“Candace contracted my team to handle the event platform and production for several fully virtual events she was managing. Each time, she has been well organized and excellent at keeping her team on track to ensure the success of her events. Candace quickly adapted to the changing event landscape in 2020 and was always looking to grow her knowledge. She knew when to lean on my team's expertise to make her events a success and effortlessly integrated that with what worked for her event audience she knew so well. I look forward to partnering with her on future events.”
“I have had the pleasure of working with EBCM in both in-person and virtual events. Candace’s level of detail is simply AMAZING! EBCM's ability to create a memorable and successful experience for our attendees – from the layout of the project's planning , through all of the decisions needed when managing multiple vendors, corporate partners and staff always goes beyond the expectations. Candace and her team bring years of experience that is needed to take any event from good to spectacular. Her capacity to work through all aspects of an event before it is activated gives an assurance needed for working with 1200+ attendees in an in-person event. EBCM makes the experience of working with her a partnership and that speaks volumes in the world of events!”
I manage in-person, virtual, and hybrid events from inception to activation – professionally, and strategically.
