Richard Wilson: writing the panel questions himself
In introducing the Rainmaker Series, Richard said he wrote the discussion-panel questions at his events.
The organizer shaped the inquiry
He connected his event role with hearing directly from investors. Writing the questions gave him a role in choosing which issues the panel would explore.
The answers fed later teaching
Richard described learning through the events and interviews over time. The series introduction presented those conversations as inputs to the material he was about to teach. The preparation and the answers were both parts of his learning process.
In Richard C. Wilson's words
"I script every discussion panel question." (Richard C. Wilson, recorded Rainmaker Series module)
