Moderate a live Q&A session

What’s it handy for?

Give your teams a chance to interact with company leadership by hosting a live Q&A session in Slack – easily accomplished with this workflow.

A few uses for this workflow:

• Leaders: Hosting an “Ask Me Anything” (AMA)
• Internal Comms: Fielding questions at the end of an all hands meeting
• Managers: Recurring office hours

Through the shortcuts menu, anyone can submit a question that’s then routed to a private moderation channel. There it can be reviewed and approved to post in the original channel where you’re hosting Q&A.

To get started:

1. Download the example
2. Navigate to Workflow Builder and select “Import”
3. Once imported, edit the workflow to make sense for your team
4. Publish and let everyone know about your masterpiece

See it in action:
