Episode description

As a moderator, interview and event host I take great pride in the work I do but sadly most panels at conferences are boring, disconnected or badly moderated. 

On this episode I breakdown all the work I do prior to an interview or panel to make a panel dynamic and engaging.  I share my thoughts on the following topics:

  • Why I don't supply panelists or interviewees questions
  • What I ask for the panelist to provide me as the moderator
  • Does which microphone panelists use matter?
  • What role does crowdsourcing play in a great panel.
  • Keys to making a panel not suck
  • Trust triangle as the focus of a great panel
  • What most moderators get wrong
  • Why most panels attract attendees yet almost always disappoint
  • Future of panels and why they are essential for today's events.
