#ShowerThoughts why we don't have keynote speeches at catered conferences while everyone is eating their meal? A time when your hands and mouth are full and the only thing you can really do well (other than feed yourself) is listen? Instead, during meal breaks, we try to talk to each through mouthfuls of food, while also trying to figure out why we're doing in the next session. We could have keynote networking sessions in the schedule where we don't try to eat a meal (maybe tea and finger food).
