ADDITIONAL SERVICES
Here are a few ways Jason can help you enhance your event.
A Conference Gamestorm
This is where Jason works with you to design and facilitate gamefully interactive activities and experiences that are meaningful and relevant to your event. Think: on-stage angry birds, mass rock-paper-scissors, and street scavenger hunts... all with a purpose. Also, better integration of sponsors into the event. Triple wins, all round.
Themeweaving
This is Jasons fancy way saying MC. Its not a roll he relishes on its own but when combined with conference doodling (below) and a closing keynote, it is ACE! Think: an event that builds in momentum, relevance and meaning even if some of your speakers are a bit boring or content heavy. Jason will bring the best out of everything for you and your participants. Also: epic panel sessions!
Conference Doodling & Visual Wrap-up
This is where Jason sits in on your event, tracking key ideas from all plenary speakers in cartoon/comic style format (on a digital pen tablet). These slides are then incorporated into Jasons closing keynote where he recaps all the important ideas from the event. Somewhat humorously, but with reverence. Participants are then guided through activities that will help them leave not just ?inspired with a heap of ideas, but with a refined set of ideas, a sense of optimistic urgency, and a gameplan to make them happen.
Then, these illustrated slides are made available to all delegates after the event so that everyone gets it... ensuring that your conference message sticks (and has reach)
