The through those minutes can be frustrating. But I can count on a single hand the number of panel sessions Ive ever found value in and I strongly dislike being forced to choose between sessions and not sharing the same experience with other attendees. Even when the session Ive chosen is a good one I have FOMO what if that other session around the corner is even better and that drives my quality of experience down. This though is personal preference. If you like panels breakouts and multitrack options stick to SMX Content Marketing World INBOUND and others like them.
If youre like me and prefer all keynotes single track go for CTAConf Czech Republic Mobile Number List Searchlove Inbounder MozCon and their ilk. I agree this is a real problem. Being a conference organizer I get to see a lot of the feedback and requests and I think thats where the issue stems from. For example a few years back Brittan Bright who now does sales at Google in New York gave a brilliant talk about the soft skills of selling and client relations. It scored OK in the lineup but a lot of the feedback overall that year was from people who wanted more tactical tips and technical tricks and less soft skills content.
Every conference has to deal with this demand and supply issue. You might respond as my friend Wil Reynolds often does with who cares what people say they want Give them what they dont know they need my friends. Every year we try to include at least a few sessions that focus on these softer skills in numerous ways and every year theres pushback from folks who wish wed just show them how to get more easy links or present some new tool they havent heard of before. Its a tough give and take but Im empathetic to both sides on this issue. Actionable tactics matter.
