HPR4368: Lessons learned moderating technical discussion panels


Listen Later

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host.

Lessons I've learned moderating 5+ tech panels:

Preparation:
  • Be familiar with the panelists and their subject matter.
  • Avoid asking common questions.
  • Set up the stage using a semicircle arrangement rather than
    formal tables to promote dialogue between panelists.
  • Ensure that each panelist has their own microphone to prevent
    any accidental dominance in the discussion.
    Execution:
    • Set a friendly and informal tone before the panel starts to help
      nervous panelists relax.
    • Involve the audience by encouraging questions and conducting
      polls to increase engagement.
    • Use a central microphone for audience questions to avoid delays
      and maintain a smooth flow.
    • Listen carefully to questions and rephrase them if necessary to
      ensure clarity for the panelists.
    • Know when to politely wrap up discussions to keep the
      conversation moving.
