Types of paneling

Fellow speaker,

When you are moderating a panel of speakers, you can use:
  • Q&A - 5-minute introduction of topic and panelists, 25 minutes of moderator questions, 30 minutes of guided audience questions
  • Guided Conversation Style - 2-minute introduction of the topic, 5-7 minutes for each panelist to introduce themselves and their perspective, 20 minutes of guided response from each panelist to what the others have said, 5 minute audience Q&A
  • Speech Style - 5-minute introduction of topic and panelists, 10-15 minutes for each panelist, 5-minute audience Q&A
Im-Paneled,
