Share Your Ideas

Thursday Defensive is about sharing real-life experiences, promulgating best practices, and asking the right questions. If you have experiences or insights that will help others, we want to hear from you.

What do I need to do?

Fill out the speaker form on this page and give us a general topic you are comfortable talking about. Be prepared to talk 15-20 minutes about whatever you feel strongly about in your field. People will likely ask questions along the way. You can provide tools, links, email and contact info to guests if you wish. Jump on zoom a few minutes before 12:30 CT. We end promptly at the top of the hour 1:00pm CT.

What’s it like?

Our audience averages about 100 people each week, with a few trusty participants. Everyone is allowed to contribute to the discussion. We will help facilitate and help make you and your topic look great!

How will the recording be used?

Presentations are recorded. We currently publish a written summary. In the future we may share video snippets to give select insights greater reach and to promote the webcast in general. We'll respect what you're comfortable with, so please let please specify any restrictions when you submit the form so we can honor those.
