Andrew Roby is honored to be speaking at Engage! Luxury Event and Wedding Planning Conference. It is a three-day event taking place Dec. 13-16 in the Bahamas with distinguished event planners from around the world. Roby will be speaking on authentic leadership.
According to their website, “Engage! Is the original masterclass of the global luxury wedding and event industry, gathering the world’s top innovators and thought leaders for inclusive and immersive experiences that spark connection, creativity, and collaboration.” Their mission is to internationally intertwine the wedding and event industry.
Roby will be pulling from his own experience as the head of Andrew Roby Events to delve into how to be an authentic, self-aware and genuine leader in the workplace. In Roby’s 13 years of event planning experience, he has built a strong reputation for leading with heart and passion and focusing on long-term results, two important elements of authentic leadership.
At the core of his D.C-based black-owned event planning company is a commitment to being an “event storyteller.” He works closely with his clients to tell their unique and intimate stories through the execution of their event, instead of following a “one-size-fits-all” formula.
In addition to running Andrew Roby Events, Roby is also the founder of the National Events Council, working to provide equality within the events industry.
“I started this organization to help the industry more fully celebrate all genders, races, sexual orientations and ethnic backgrounds,” said Roby. “Together we can end inequality in the event planning industry,”
Roby is recognized for his attention to detail, unique flair and emphasis on inclusion in his event planning community. He specializes in weddings, social events and corporate conference planning.
Andrew Roby’s accolades include the “40 under 40 Award” by Connect Corporate and the “Top Wedding Planner in America” Award by Bride’s Magazine. He also received Wedding Wire’s “Couple’s Choice Award.” Andrew Roby Events has been featured on WeddingChicks.com, The Knot and CBS and FOX News.
