126: Three Ways to Make Panels Less Awkward and More Effective | Story Snacks Series

Panels are weird. Everyone’s trying to look smart without sounding rehearsed.

And somehow you’re supposed to introduce yourself and tell memorable stories in just a matter of minutes.

It’s not easy, and it’s not something you want to wing (especially if you want to make sure your participation is worth your while).

That’s why, in this episode, Stacy’s breaking down her top dos and don’ts for showing up sharp and human on a panel. Whether you’re intro’ing yourself or riffing off someone else’s point, these moves will help you actually make your time on stage count.

You’ll learn:

• What makes a 90-second intro land
• How to make a panel feel less like a meeting that should’ve been an email
• A better way to add to someone else’s point (without just repeating it and blending in)

This is Story Snacks, a bite-sized, jam-packed series for fund managers who are ready to master strategic storytelling in under 20 minutes a week.
