What to include in your event speaker management

  • Keep the speaker in context

    Keep speaker, session, slot, biography, slide version, consent and technical requirement together so the next person can understand the request or record.

  • When the next step needs a decision

    A speaker accepts a morning slot but has not approved the public biography. Confirm the slot independently and keep publication of the biography pending until the relevant approval is recorded.

  • Keep technical requirement visible

    Keep biography publication pending even when the speaker's slot is confirmed.

  • Choose what each person needs

    Give the event coordinator a working view and the programme owner a review view. Keep speaker and session attached to the decision as the work moves between them.
