Winging it doesn’t work.
Panels and fireside chats may feel like casual conversations, but when you’re on stage with a mic, the audience deserves more than whatever comes to mind.
In Episode 8 of The SpeakerPath Podcast, Brian Miller and Jo Jongsma break down how to prepare for these formats using core messaging. They explain why “speaking from the heart” only works if you’ve rehearsed your message, how to adapt your talking points for short time slots, and how to make every answer clip-worthy for the audience in the room and the replay.
What you’ll learn:
- Why panels and firesides are harder than they look
- The difference between sounding rehearsed and being well-prepared
- How to define your premise and make it relevant to any audience
- Why every answer should be short enough to stand alone, but expandable when needed
- A practical editing process to refine your answers from ten minutes down to one sentence
- Tricks to stay authentic while keeping structure
