Veja como você pode colaborar efetivamente com outros palestrantes durante painéis de discussão ou conferências.

Effective collaboration with co-panelists begins with thorough preparation. By coordinating topics, assigning roles, and agreeing on the discussion flow beforehand, speakers ensure a cohesive narrative. During the panel, active listening and respectful handling of disagreements foster a productive dialogue. Sharing the spotlight equally and following up afterward further strengthens professional relationships and enhances the overall panel experience for both speakers and the audience.

I do lots of research about other panelists before I get to the event. If possible I also try to meet together with others on a video call so that we can best understand each others "lane", and do everything we can to give each other or a certain topic an appropriate amount of time. The goal of course is great audience experience, not a competition amongst panelists.

To ace collaboration on panels: Know Your Co-Panellists: Understand their style and expertise. Clear Communication: Sync up before the event. Discuss format and key points. Active Listening: Listen intently and respond to keep it dynamic. Engage, Don’t Dominate: Share the spotlight. Encourage quieter speakers. Build On Ideas: Elevate others' points with your insights. Be Authentic: Be genuine in interactions. Use Humor and Stories: Lighten the mood with anecdotes. Handle Disagreements Gracefully: Disagree respectfully. Acknowledge their point first. Audience Interaction: Involve the audience. Take questions and encourage participation. Follow Up: Network post-panel and build relationships. Blend the above to make any panel memorable.

Ideally, one needs an opportunity to study the work of other participants well ahead of time. I am studying 1. How our collective human activity has crossed Six out of the " Nine Planetary Boundaries." 2. The Doughnut Economy. 3. The urgent need to move to a Wellness-Focused economy and Earth For All. 4. The risks of Chat GPT and the urgent need for new legislation to hold Corporations accountable for any harm caused. 5. Planetary Health. 6 The new Alliance for Middle East Peace. So much is happening that a consensus may need to be revised. Practicing active listening and clarifying sources of information is vital to me.

To make a mark as a motivational speaker, it’s crucial to focus on marketing to boost visibility. Many passionate speakers stumble early on because they underestimate marketing’s role alongside their storytelling skills. Effective marketing can lead to collaborations with other notable speakers and invitations to impactful events. For instance, leveraging platforms like LinkedIn can help organizations quickly and affordably assemble speakers to further their mission to a broader audience. For example, by leveraging the following strategies it will help businesses differentiate speakers in connection with their customers such as the individual engagement through content, loyalty programs, and a niche marketing.

Whenever you are a part of a panel, know your fellow panellist. Interact and understand their expertise. If you feel something has to be added to your answer, you would know whom to direct to. This is all about respecting one other and giving the audience the best. Same way also they would know when you have to pitch in as they would be aware of your strengths. The panellists can give examples of each other if they know each other well.

As an executive speaking coach, I emphasize the importance of knowing your strengths to collaborate effectively during panel discussions or conferences. Recognize what you bring to the table, whether it's deep industry knowledge, unique perspectives, or engaging storytelling skills. Use these strengths to contribute meaningfully without overshadowing others. Listen actively and build on fellow speakers' points to create a cohesive and dynamic dialogue. By leveraging your expertise confidently and respectfully, you enhance the collective impact, ensuring a more engaging and insightful experience for the audience. Collaboration rooted in self-awareness leads to powerful and memorable discussions.

Active listening is a critical skill during panel discussions. It’s not just about waiting for your turn to speak; it’s about truly engaging with what others are saying. This means nodding, making eye contact, and offering verbal affirmations when appropriate. By doing so, you show deep respect for your fellow speakers and keep the audience captivated. Active listening allows you to build on others’ points, creating a seamless and interactive dialogue. This attentive engagement demonstrates your dedication to the discussion and elevates the conversation, making it more dynamic, insightful, and impactful for everyone involved.

La Escucha Activa, me interesa practicarla cada vez que converso con alguien diferente a mi. Creo que esto me ha permitido entender mejor a quienes opinan distinto a lo que yo creo. Siendo de Derecha Politica, me he encontrado con personas de Izquierdas, que si bien no estamos de acuerdo, voy viendo (a traves de conversaciones en rede sociales) de que los seres humanos buscamos lo mismo. Esto lo he visto, tratando de no enojarme porque escucho cosas disonantes para mi, y poniendome en el lugar del otro, pensando cual es la historia de mi interlocutor, su crianza, sus sueños , emociones, etc.

This is critical. A panelist who doesn't know when to stop speaking can alienate both fellow panelists and audience members. Do not be that person.

Una de las cosas que me impactó por ejemplo, fue compartir con una Comunidad Ecologista, que a simple vista para mi era algo totalmente contrario a mis ideas Conservadoras, pero eso es para otra historia, quizas mas larga de contar, y que mientras escribo estas lineas, creo que da para mas largo... sin embargo, puedo decir a ciencia cierta, de que compartir con personas distintas a lo que uno cree o piensa, te enriquece, y te hace ser un mejor ser humano, que desarrolla aun mas tu posibilidad de estar con una Escucha Activa, mas presente y realista de lo que otros pueden sentir en un momento dado.

The key to a successful panel is ensuring all voices are heard. Sharing the spotlight and encouraging quieter members to contribute is essential. Achieve this by asking open-ended questions or directly inviting input from those less vocal. In my experience, fostering an inclusive environment not only enriches the discussion with diverse perspectives but also enhances the audience's experience. If you want a dynamic and engaging panel, prioritizing inclusivity isn't just recommended—it's imperative.

One very important thing I have found helpful is trying to know more about the other speakers before the day. Know their areas of expertise and a little about their personality from their social media or Google and this would really really help.
