SoA Listening Session | Online
19 October @ 18:00 - 19:30 BST

This year, we’re hosting a series of in-person and online Listening Sessions to understand the biggest issues affecting our members. As we journey through our current five-year strategy period, 2025-2030, we want to ensure that we continue to listen to members’ needs.
The format for our Member Listening Sessions will involve a small group meeting for members to share the biggest issues affecting them as an author. These meetings will be structured to foster open communication and understanding among members on topics relevant to the business of authorship.
This is part of a series of listening sessions we’re hosting in person and online this year. We also have an online survey which you can complete here.
