FAMILY REUNION 2016 Do not send anyone in your place—contact KWU if you have a last-minute emergency. Respect time—do not go over your allotted session. Arrive 20 minutes before your session, stay for a few minutes after to answer any follow up questions. Remind your audience to complete an evaluation. Expectations and Standards
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Know your content inside and out. Don’t wing it—practice! Practice timing. Don’t talk about what you “plan to do,” the audience is there to learn from your experience. Focus on the practical—give ideas people can walk away with and implement. Don’t exaggerate or lie. How to Be Most Effective
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Use the microphones at all times—including audience questions (for audio-recording purposes). Allow time for questions and always repeat the question. Make it fun! Be inspirational! Make it practical! Show appreciation by thanking your audience for their time and attention. Be gracious! How to Be Most Effective
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Schedule a call ahead of time with your panelists. Review the questions from KWU. Identify who will answer what, and have panelists share their answers. Consult with the panelists and make any necessary edits to ensure the answers are concise and practical. Practice together. Effective Facilitators
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Facilitators are chosen for their leadership and knowledge of a topic. Act as a moderator. Keep panelists on topic. Move the discussion along. Avoid any one person dominating the conversation. Ask great follow-up questions and hit important points. Effective Facilitators
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Dig deep to uncover the real meat of the topic so your attendees get the maximum impact from the session. Don’t allow for debate. Facilitate sharing of viewpoints vs. convincing others what’s right or wrong. Effective Facilitators
FAMILY REUNION 2016 Think of your facilitator as the conductor and you as the orchestra—follow their signals and cues. Be generous to one another to allow for equal speaking time. Speak from the heart—a panel is effective because it provides different points of view. Share what you did, the impact it had, what you did right, and what you would do differently next time.
