SHANNON BYCK, CMP
Shannon has been in the business events industry for more than 18 years and to further her commitment to the industry, she studied tirelessly to obtain her Certified Meeting Professional (CMP) designation. She thinks it is important to contribute to the industry and is an active member of MPI and is on the MPI Toronto Chapter Marketing Committee, the MPI Association Advisory Board and the MPI Canadian Advisory Council.
When she is not working hard, she is cheering for the Jays, the Raptors (…and yes the Leafs), searching for the best sparkling wine, mastering the art of popcorn making, loving (and hating) the gym, planning the next home renovation and dreaming about her next travel adventure!
What is your favorite sport to participate in?
My current goal is trying to be more consistent with golf. I was told to envision my shots but what I picture is not the same as reality, so appears I need more practice!
What your favorite sport to watch? And who do you cheer on?
Growing up we watched all types of sports but for sure the favourites were hockey and baseball. My mom was a die-hard Toronto Blue Jays and Toronto Maple Leafs fan. It was not imaginable to cheer for anyone else!
Why are Sports your Passion?
I love that with sports, you start with a team of like-minded individuals, develop a plan of action and then as a team, work hard towards success.
