ABOUT LITTLE GATHERINGS:
A Little Gathering is a 90-minute event on Zoom, split into three parts:
1. Live podcast interview hosted by Katie Elliott
Please note, this section will be recorded for future broadcast.
2. Your Q&A
After the interview, we'll turn the recording off and create space for you to chat with others and ask the guest any questions you may have.
3. Small-group breakout conversations
There’ll be two rounds of conversation with different people and a simple prompt to get you started - which you're welcome to disregard if you wish! Just three or four people in each breakout room, so plenty of opportunity both to listen and speak.
Finally, we'll come back together to share a few insights and wrap things up. The room will stay open for an optional 15 minutes after the event finishes, in case you would like to swap contact details with the new people you’ve met.
