The O Six Foundation’s recent Roundtable Meeting was a resounding success, and we’ve received valuable feedback and suggestions to make future meetings even more impactful. Here are some key recommendations and endorsements from our community:
Pre-Meeting Introductions: It’s suggested that two weeks before the meeting, we introduce all participants, especially the presenters and panelists, in our group. This approach will not only facilitate better preparation and networking but also enable us to identify and invite potentially more suitable contributors, enhancing the overall quality of the meeting.
Meeting Secretary Role: We should assign a secretary for each meeting to take notes. The key points from these notes will be shared in our group post-event, ensuring everyone has access to the valuable insights and discussions.
Follow-Up Segment: Adding a follow-up segment is highly recommended. We invite presenters to return after six months or a year to discuss the implementation of the suggestions and address any new challenges. If a presenter’s business significantly benefits from the Roundtable, a donation to the O Six Round Table Foundation is suggested to help more small businesses. These contributors will have priority in participating in future meetings as presenters or observers.
Success Stories: Any successful collaborations facilitated through the O Six Round Table should be communicated to Lin, Annie, and Cathy. Sometimes, the most casual connections can lead to fruitful outcomes.
Publication of Success Stories: If feasible, regularly compiling these successful business stories for publication as business cases, books, or other media formats would be invaluable.
This initiative can provide learning and inspiration for a broader range of entrepreneurs. We’re thrilled to see the positive impact of our Roundtable Meetings and are committed to incorporating these suggestions to foster a more collaborative and effective environment for all our members.
This post will highlight the community’s engagement and the Foundation’s dedication to continuous improvement, fostering a sense of pride and participation among the members.
