did organizers encounter a lot of difficult converting new conference attendees to more engaged EAs?
I am curious about this too.
In particular it feels to me that post event follow at EAGxs I have been to was weak.
Does CEA think this is true of EAGxs to date?
If so there a plan to improve on this?
If there is not a plan can I offer my help to CEA to develop one?
Wonderful of you to offer! Follow-up hasn’t been weak across-the-board but it’s certainly a hard thing for organizers to juggle on top of everything else.
We have limited resources set up for this at the moment, such as: a) the ability to reach out to Harri for local group advice and funding, b) copies of Doing Good Better you can use for a book club, c) the chance to request EA Global tickets to raffle off, d) a series of follow-up emails to attendees, and e) brief advice for running a follow-up event (https://goo.gl/w9fkYS).
Happy to take suggestions for other things we might do.
