Sure, the core/host team and I may struggle with finding the right key question that stimulates and serves both groups - and sure, the core/host team may need to send out differently-crafted messages / announcements to speak to different kind of groups. But it is exactly the diversity that will fuel these great exciting ideas and the method that will deliver cross-platform communication between disciplines. ...if I understand correctly from your short description, Ted...
