Isn’t that a great lineup! I can’t take much credit for putting this together since there are others who have put in tons more time, but this will be an excellent event, especially since it’s free and you can pick and choose which topics/speakers are most interesting. Thanks for sharing the buzz about it!
As one of the event organizers, and a panelist in the Career Stream, I’d like to thank you for blogging about the event. It’s an amazing lineup of talented thought leaders. One of the things that I love about it is that podcasts of all the sessions will be available indefinitely after the even, and at no cost.
So anyone can register and listen in as time allows. This is especially important as there will be two sessions running at each hour. So no need to choose. Listen to one live and one later. And for those time zones where the sessions will be on in the wee hours of the morning, or during business hours, no need to miss sleep or work! Personally, I plan to download a bunch and listen in the car, on the plane, and at the gym.

I didn’t know that podcasts would be available afterward — what a bonus! Thanks for the additional info, Deb, and thanks for stopping by.
Steve – thank you so much for taking the time to share this event with your community.
As the chair or the organing team and a host and speaker on the day, I have to say that the team have done a great job pulling this together – everyone including the speakers are volunteering their time.
It is terrific that we are able to build buzz about the event through blogs and podcasts. Thank you for helping us spread the good news.
Make sure that you register on the website also for updates of the blog as we will be featuring articles and podcasts there in the weeks ahead.
And we’ll also be adding a feature so that you can ask your questions of the speakers right at the website for the event.

Hi Steve, I’m another member of the organising team – well the brand designer, I can’t claim to have organised more than acquiring and editing head shots!
I’ve just been doing a Google and came across your excellent post, thank you.
Just a little extra note: it’s worth keeping an eye on the website because content is being added all the time.
