Welcome to the wonderful world of filling up a schedule which lasts for almost a week. What magic is needed to get it done? How do we make sure people have a good time? How do we make not only the public but also the speakers happy? What else do we do aside from reading submissions?
Not only do the people in team:Content have a network of contacts, but they also need an agility of mind to be able to understand the different submissions and how they are rated. The work isn't just reading though - we have to schedule everything as well. We have to get speakers to submit. We write blog posts. We choose stage names. And once the schedule is published... we work with the speakerdesk. This is our process.
