What if new issues or unexpected questions arise during our meeting?
A State Chamber of Commerce was holding a
conference of all their members and community leaders to discuss the
present and future plans for the state. They developed an agenda but
also wanted to address new issues and concerns that might be discovered
during the conference.
Meridia Audience Response was invited to be a part of
the conference to add an interactive element and increase the
involvement and feedback from the meeting attendees. The chamber
officials were concerned that--although they could get feedback from the
audience with the Meridia system--they weren't asking all the right
questions. We suggested that they provide the audience with 3x5 cards on
which the audience could write questions that they would like to pose to
the entire group.
The cards were collected and reviewed at the
lunch break. A small committee then selected ten of the most compelling
from the list. These questions were given to the Meridia specialist to
enter into the computer. Throughout the afternoon the new questions were
presented on the screen and the entire audience was able to respond to
them.
Using Meridia Audience Response's services in
this manner added the element of immediacy to the proceedings and the
audience was impressed that they were not only able to answer questions,
but could provide questions for polling as well.
The result was a dynamic atmosphere of
participation and excitement throughout the conference. And as a bonus,
the Chamber got insight into previously unknown issues presented by the
audience.
