BT Global Kick.
BT Global Kick-off is an internal staff conference for 400 senior BT sales staff. The event ran to a very tight budget with highly contradictory briefing from different stakeholders. Led
delivery team, draughting technical specifications, appointing suppliers and controlled
budget. Provided strong communication and firm pushback to clients in order to achieve
solutions that met the opposing objectives. Worked with the creative team to minimise
compromise and maximise outcome within financial limitation. With a very short
construction phase, deconfliction in the scheduling was carefully considered to ensure crew
safety.
