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!
