WHAT IS A TWENTY MINUTE COLLABORATIONS SALON?
Twenty Minute Collaborations Salon is the live version of the podcast Twenty Minute Collaborations. Twenty Minute Collaborations is focused on finding ways we can collaborate better together. Each guest shares a story about a time they had a common goal with others. Most stories describe moments we would never label as collaborations even though they are. From the stories, we find wonderful lessons how we can create more impactful collaborations. This journey with Gregg Potter will bring laughs, surprises, and connecting in a way we all need more of.
The Salon live show is a way to have more open conversation with exciting impactful guests while creating space that people feel heard, appreciated, and welcome. There is no fourth wall during the live show. Gregg has a discussion with each guest while facilitating the audience into the conversation by asking for feedback, fielding questions, and creating space by finding common ground with the audience and guests.
HOW DOES THE SALON WORK?
The Twenty Minute Collaborations Salon is a combination of storytelling, conversation, information sharing, and collective growth. Everyone present is on this ride together. This is done by creating an equation of three to four guest interviews, group time to mingle, Gregg facilitating conversations, and reflection. Each Salon is slightly different as it must be catered to the needs of the purpose and mission of your event.
EXAMPLES OF SALONS
Conference Session or Keynote
Using a Salon in place of a traditional speaker is a great way to engage participants. The combination of components for the live show are so impactful that attendees often link those good feelings from the Salon to the entire conference experience.
Fundraiser
Creating a Salon to bring people to a fun event is a terrific way to raise some money. We can talk about what your needs are and create a salon that fosters the exact space to raise money for a cause that fits with the guests invited to share their stories.
Campus event
Universities and student centers find a Salon a great way to bring in students, teach lessons, and get thought provoking conversation going. This is also an excellent way to highlight guests or celebrate people creating positive impact on campus.
Large campaign kickoffs (Citywide, large company, bridging communities)
A Salon gets people excited under a common theme. This can be used to your advantage when launching a new campaign. In this circumstance, the live show often gets spread out and has other events and conversations woven in. This is something that Gregg and our team can work with you on.
