On September 12, 2017, Nasdaq brought town hall innovators­–including Alison Davis­–to help breathe new life into meetings. The webinar, How to Power Up Your Employee Town Hall Meetings, was sponsored by Nasdaq, the second largest stock exchange in the world, and the session gave great tips on:

  • Why you need to approach town halls like a TV producer
  • How to modernize the format of your event to increase engagement
  • How to coach executives to be hosts rather than presenters
  • Tips to help improve interactivity with an online—and mobile—audience

Too often town halls are little more than top-down information dumps from senior leaders, leaving employees feeling overwhelmed and uninvolved. Alison was joined by two other veteran communicators Kimberly Sharp, Nasdaq Global Head of Internal Communications and Simon Ball, Nasdaq Global Head of Digital Media Solutions­ to share their insights on revitalizing town halls.
