Global Talent Week

Problem: Global Talent Week is a series of careers fairs and career events. For their flagship 2015 conference and event, they needed a host who could lead two panel discussion as well as introduce all the speakers, and close the event.

Solution: Upon getting the commission, I ensured that I did background research on all the panellists, and pre-interviewed them to find out where they stood on certain issues. Then I wrote specific interview questions for each that would allow them to individually shine (which I distributed to them in advance).

Results: This approach meant that the discussions were lively and informative. It also ensured that each panellist had a clear role, and a clear point of view to share. The two panels were very different and full of advice, tips and lots of laughs.
