Structure the conversation before the budget moves.
Most MICE programs run into trouble not during live delivery but during planning — when assumptions go unchallenged, decisions get deferred, and suppliers are briefed before the team agrees on what success looks like.
This tool forces the right questions early. Each section is a planning conversation that must happen before the next can be productive — use it in internal briefings, supplier discussions and stakeholder reviews.
