  • Publication number: 20110035680
    Abstract: A method of scoring the performance of attendees at a meeting based upon a predetermined desired performance criteria set by a meeting organizer or sponsor. All attendees at the meeting wear electronic tags where goals for the tag-wearer's meeting performance, such as session attendance, survey completion, conversing with certain people, etc., are stored. Each goal has an associated score, and the scores also are retained in the tag. From these goals and scores, a total score is computed from the plurality of scores, the total score being indicative of the overall performance of the attendee at the meeting measured against the predetermined desired performance criteria.
