Refresh Your Plays While There’s Still Time to Pivot

As summer winds down, many teams are gearing up for Q4 by tightening messaging, running refreshers, and retooling plays. But not everything deserves to be carried forward.

This session is about knowing what to repeat, what to retire, and how to spot the difference. Join your peers to compare notes on what’s sticking, what’s falling flat, and how you’re making quick changes without slowing momentum.

Discussion Prompts to Reflect on Before the Session:

• What’s one tactic or message you’re retiring before Q4?

• What’s working well that you’re planning to reinforce?

• How are you preparing your teams for Q4 urgency?

• What are you learning from your top reps or accounts right now?

• How are you making enablement actually stick?

How to Get the Most From This Forum

The Executive Forum is designed to be a collaborative, high-trust environment—where every member brings something to the conversation and leaves with new ideas, new questions, and new connections.

Here’s how to prepare and participate:

Come Ready to Share

This session centers on your experience, not a lecture. Please take a few minutes to reflect on the discussion prompts above in advance, and be ready to contribute your perspective.

Full Participation Matters

This isn’t a passive webinar. To keep the conversation meaningful and interactive, we ask that members join with cameras on and mics unmuted. If you're not able to participate actively that day, we recommend skipping the session so others can fully engage in smaller groups.

Expect Breakouts

You’ll have the opportunity to join small-group breakouts once or twice during the hour. These are designed for deeper discussion, sharper insights, and stronger peer connections.

Connect Beyond the Zoom

We encourage you to trade contact info, connect on LinkedIn, and build real working relationships with the peers you meet here. This space is a jumping-off point for ongoing peer support.

Send Us Your Hot Take

Have a strong opinion or risky question on this month’s topic? Members will receive a series calendar invite for the year and can send their hot take or question for each month in advance. We’ll share as many as we can (anonymously unless you choose to claim it) to spark group discussion. Your perspective might be just what someone else needs to hear.

Important Note On Confidentiality

Emblaze Executive Forum is:

• Live only – Never recorded, never transcribed. You have to be in the Zoom room to get the value.
• Off the record – No device recording permitted. Our facilitator will remove automatic recording devices out of respect for the group.
