G'day All A query which has arisen for me is whether or not to suggest to the sponsor of a forthcoming forum that the participants be notified in advance of the theme settled on for the meeting.
Addressing the theme chosen by the sponsor - expressed as a compelling question - could have substantial bearing on an industry which is in a state of real crisis. The participants will already have given a great deal of consideration to issues associated with the question. My hesitation about publicising the specifics of the theme in advance is that people may come with relatively firm positions. Whereas if they encounter it on the day there may be more spontaneity in their responses. Of course the sponsor may have their own view on the matter; the issue has not yet been raised in our exchanges. Any experience or feelings on this query?
