With the 2022 conference being hybrid, this year we will offer breakout sessions in-person in Kansas City, as well as separate online sessions for our virtual audience. In your speaker proposal, you will be asked your preference regarding the delivery method, as some sessions may be one or the other, or both. We appreciate your flexibility in helping us design the agenda to best serve all our audiences. Regardless of delivery mode, we will provide technical guidance for all speakers to ensure high production value and maximum speaker comfort.
Anyone wishing to speak at the Great Game of Business Conference must submit a speaker proposal, which will be evaluated by the Practitioner Council. The Council will rate speaker session proposals based on the goals and objectives of the conference, as well as speaker qualifications.
WE WOULD LOVE TO HAVE ASSOCIATES, SUPERVISORS, AND MIDDLE MANAGERS INVOLVED IN THE PRESENTATIONS! Not only is that what the Great Game of Business is all about, but practitioners and 'tire kickers' alike want to hear from the people “on the front lines” that can give them insights and inspiration to help ignite engagement in their own organizations.
Here are some questions to get you thinking…
Are you still interested, but just not sure if your idea will hit? Are you open to presenting but think co-presenting with a coach or another practitioner might make more sense? Feel free to send a note to talk through some ideas – kstringer@ggob.com
