This year, we thought we would get our clients involved...
...in the structuring of the conference. The conference will be held over two days, one day for MPX and one day for Orange Leap On Demand. We are modeling OrangeCon2012 after the new trend of un-conferences.
What is an un-conference? An un-conference can be described as an open forum atmosphere where clients have direct interaction with not only our developers, but each other concerning best techniques and strategies for using Orange Leap to grow their non-profit. This is not to say that we would be stepping away from the administration of the conference, but moderating and guiding the discussion topics you choose.
Get involved! We will be awarding a FREE iPad2 to the organization we feel contributes most to the conference. Take a look at videos from our previous conferences, and research other un-conferences. Simply click to vote and give your feedback on , or join the conversation and Tweet your responses under #OrangeCon2012.
What's the difference? Previous Orange Leap conferences have been managed from a podium where our developers and service professionals lecture then follow-up with a Q&A pertaining to topics we predefined.
How will it work?
For OrangeCon2012, you will enter topics into an online queue weeks before and then, on the morning of the conference, leading topics could be voted on by the spectrum of nonprofit attendees. These topics would be grouped into categories to cultivate the most useful responses.
Make it work for you! Along with choosing session topics that concern your type of organization, choosing which forums that you attend allows you to cut to the point and communicate with like minded subscribers to create answers.
Why are we doing this?
Our aim for this conference is to integrate directors of development, fundraising, the board, IT, end-users and Orange Leap to meet our overall goal of energizing non-profits making it easier for them to achieve mission success.
Be thinking of topics like:
What you have accomplished with Orange Leap
What type of reports give you the best information to act on
Which integrations are most useful and how to use them
Fundraising and Communication best practices
Features you would like to see
