Members at the event used a "Catch Box" which was a fun LinkedIn Branded Soft Microphone Box like tossing a pillow, to participate or ask questions.   


Some folks were hesitant to toss and talk, but a few were bold in their participation in the discussion and use of the technology.  Go ahead, catch, and speak to the "in" Box. 

Rob Matheson, a Client Executive from PCM was bold and was one of the first to use the box..   

There were great questions from our participants, other great leadership discussions were raised by Kawser Jamal, City of Santa Clara IT Consultant and IT Representative.
