Considerations
We are looking for content that fits into one of our tracks. Your session should be engaging, thought-provoking, and present a clear idea or message. You want to ensure that your submission stands out from the crowd.
You can present your story in several different ways. Are you really a keynote speaker or is your talk more appropriate in a roundtable setting? Review the options under the "Considerations For Program Agenda" tab and identify what format best communicates your message.
- Keynote Speaker – People travel nationwide to hear me speak when I announce events. I have a following that’s active and engaged. I’m a celebrity, an accomplished leader, or a disruptor changing norms and practices.
- Breakout Session – People regard me as a subject matter expert and my talking points are focused on specific segments. I’m capable of delivering high-value talks in short periods.
- Panel Sessions – I have an idea for a relevant panel for attendees.
- Workshops – I can deliver incredible value, but my subject requires more than an hour to give.
- Roundtables – I’m best hands-on and serving small groups.
