Every session has an interaction budget. Spend it well.
Ask what each prompt is actually buying. A poll that takes too long to set up costs us a story. A word cloud that lands quickly earns us the room’s attention.
Before we build the slide, we ask:
• where does this prompt sit in the run sheet?
• can the setup fit in a single sentence?
• do the results come back while the room is still with us?
Participation should add to the talk, not take it over.
Stage Toolkit keeps interaction light enough to sit inside the story we came to tell.
