IAVM member Bob McClintock, COO and senior vice president of the convention center division of SMG, was featured twice this past week on Philly.com in articles about convention center management. Here’s what he said in the article “In Convention Center Management, What You Don’t See Still Counts” when asked about what he likes about the business.
“Every day is different, there’s never a boredom factor in what they do. If you like working with people, obviously this is a fabulous business to be in, because you get to work with so many different people from so many different walks of life. Our customers are some of the smartest people in the world. When I walk into our medical shows, I say, ‘Every single person in this room is smarter than I am.’”
