This is so true, especially part III. My best work has been done for years in the session after the session, the informal conversation that succeeds the formal meeting or training session I was getting paid for! Thanks for articulating the possibilities!

Aloha Dan, thank you for stopping by!
Just as you have experienced, I started to understand what an opportunity we BOTH (speaker and audience) were missing in this *afterglow* and now I make a regular habit of suggesting we allow for this "session after the session" as we plan for the event - I so much prefer setting up some kind of after-event venue to the conventional Q&A most people ask that we do. Nothing really fancy, but immediately afterward, and listed in the program as an expectation people can plan for. They get the Q&A they wanted, but only those really interested remain and we have a smaller, more engaged circle of discussion.
People also feel better about it because they know I had planned for it too, and they don't feel they are intruding or keeping me behind. I thoroughly enjoy the interaction and getting immediate feedback is great.
