About this listen

In this episode, panel expert Kristin Arnold reveals how great moderators read the room moment by moment. She shares practical techniques for scanning facial expressions, body language, and energy shifts to sense when the audience is confused, engaged, or drifting. Kristin explains how to adjust pacing, redirect questions, or shift formats to keep the discussion lively and relevant. By staying fully present and responsive, moderators build rapport, maintain engagement, and deliver a panel experience that truly resonates.
