For Speakers

Six weeks before your session we need to have all the information about it so that it can be posted.

• Title (70 characters max, including your name) Example: “Fantastic Teams, and How to Cultivate Them with Diana Larsen”
• Abstract / Description of your session (650 characters max)
• Bio for you and any co-presenters (650 characters max)
• Bio or session photo (photos work best in meetup.com when they are at least 1200 x 675 pixels)

Take a look at previous abstracts and bios on meetup to see what others have written. Keep it short.

Four weeks before your session we will post the presentation details on our Meetup group. An email will go out to our members.

Your presentation starts at 6:30. Try and arrive early at 5:45 to make sure that we can get your laptop connected and any AV issues sorted out. Then relax and enjoy some time talking to the attendees until the presentation starts.

Presentations should be about 50 minutes long and have 10 minutes after for questions. Feel free to run a little longer or shorter if you want, or simply take questions during the presentation.

The space at Improving has a state of the art microphone array in the training room.  You also have the option of using a lapel microphone should need to use one.  As we present via Zoom, audio from your presentation is automatically available to those online as well as in the room.

The training room at Improving has a pair of smart touch screen TVs for sharing presentations via Zoom.  While most presentations are done using Zoom, there is also the option to use the projector via a standard HDMI input.

There is free WIFI access at Improving that should meet the needs of any presentation and streaming.
