SPEAKER RESPONSIBILITIES
To maintain the quality of the Conference and ensure the planning
process runs smoothly, the committee has outlined several
responsibilities of the speaker. If you submit a proposal to
Lean Healthcare New England, you must agree to:
-
Deliver the presentation and written materials consistent
with the proposal submitted.
-
Abide by all due dates, review processes, and reviewer
requests.
-
Manage the presentation in a manner, which avoids the
appearance of selling or promoting a specific commercial
product or service. Service providers will be asked to avoid
commercialization of presentations, "selling" or "marketing"
services and/or products, and to serve as an objective
information resource for the viewers.
-
Company or Organization branding logos are limited to two
(2) appearances within the presentation. A single,
non-obtrusive Copyright marker, no larger than 12 point
font, may be displayed on each slide to protect intellectual
capital.
-
Ensure that the presentation is produced with clear, shapely
defined, legible graphics.
-
Provide the opportunity for attendees for session to ask
questions (5 minutes minimum).
-
Secure a qualified replacement speaker in the event of
illness or other reason for the unavailability of the
speaker.
