The Good Leadership Breakfast is a professional development workshop which features CEO speakers who are creating great results with their teams. The breakfast is a unique learning experience that brings together results-minded leaders who believe that goodness pays, with Paul Batz as the host and facilitator who cultivates an environment of learning and professional growth.
When the COVID pandemic hit, the Good Leadership Breakfast series had to pivot from in-person workshops to virtual streamed events. Good Leadership was looking for a partner who cared about their success as much as they did. Production elements for the Breakfasts included an in-studio host along with a remote virtual emcee, remote virtual guests, online polling, live streaming, and podcasting.
With restrictions loosening, changes to the production model continue as the transitions to a hybrid in-person/streamed workshop back to an in-person event are made.
The November Breakfast transitioned back to an in-person event at the Metropolitan Ballroom in Golden Valley.
To record the event, CCX Media used a Roland portable studio to switch between three cameras. Metropolitan Ballroom provided an audio feed.
The in-house screens were used to display PowerPoint slides, live polling, and the program output from the Roland video switcher.
Joining the May Breakfast, along with the virtual audience viewing via livestream, was a live (fully vaccinated!) studio audience. The September and October Breakfasts followed the same model.
With COVID restrictions still in place, April’s Breakfast catered to a virtual audience. Two of the participants interacted with the host in the studio via Zoom.
A full crew was on hand to attend to all the details of the production.
The director switches between three studio cameras, two Zoom feeds, media player, one web feed, and graphics.
Multiviewer in control room monitors all video sources.
What’s a Breakfast without breakfast? There are no restrictions related to caterers and the food brought in to the studio.
