Event planners should build buffer time into schedules to handle late arrivals from traffic and personal delays. Starting sessions with built-in slack lets events begin on time without stressing organizers, whether it's a half-day event or a multi-day conference.
It's very hard to be on time. You're either early or you're late. Every event has a schedule. How do you make sure that people are on time and you start on time regardless of what happens.
It'S building enough fat into your agenda and into your run sheet. So whether you're running a five day event or whether you're running a half day session, people will be late and it will be because of traffic. It will be because of they haven't got their outfit sorted. People will always be late. So I think making sure you've got fat in the agenda to be able to account for that probably my number one.
I think that's a really good insight of maybe don't try to fight human nature so much. People will be late. Some people will not be on time. You want to start on time as you like, but try to make your life a little easier along the way.
