• [x] Create discussion Slack channel
• [x] Share in #virtual-events when booked, pointing people to Slack channel and/or form for invites
• [x] 1 week before bump event
• [ ] Send 2-5 questions to panelists a couple of days before
• [x] 1 day before bump event again
• [x] 10 mins before bump event again (can schedule)

After event:

Messaging: :wave: Hey y’all, I’m very excited to have our panel on Thursday. Here is the quick overview:

• :00 we will open the zoom and the goal will be to kick off at the :03
• I will record the session as we’re kicking off
• We will start with brief introductions. I’ll briefly introduce myself + LO. I’ll remind folks about our Slack channel.
• For your intros, please say your name, where you’re based out of, and your current role. Don’t worry about career path now.
• After we do brief intros, I’d remind folks the panel, so here we’ll talk a bit more about your specific career path.
• Sample questions
• Remember: not everyone has to answer every question, so read the room and LISTEN to the other speakers to make sure you’re saying something new.
• Then, we’ll take questions from the audience.
• We will aim to end ON TIME at the :50. But, surely NLT the :55 Thanks and looking forward to it!
