COMMITTEES


SGMP LA currently has 6 Chapter Committees actively working to improve services to members and the Louisiana meeting planning industry. Our Chapter finds it beneficial to designate committees to assist the Chapter officers in the organizational and administrative aspects of running a successful Chapter. In their areas of concern, these committees will consider objectives, discuss options, make recommendations, and implement Chapter decisions when called on to do so. Service on committees can also identify Chapter members who have special skills that may make them good officer candidates. Please contact our committee chairs if you have any questions or have an interest in joining a committee.

Communications Committee

The Communications Committee is the voice of SGMP LA through our newsletter, Louisiana Lagniappe, our various social media outlets, and our website. Our committee members generate most of the content that is shared with the membership via these channels. Our goal is to share information, resources and best practices that are relevant to our membership and content that will enhance our planners and supplier's roles within their organization.
