Questions
about audio conferences - live, CD and on-demand:
Why
attend a Restructuring Today audio conference?
Restructuring
Today's audio conferences are an easy, interactive and cost effective way
for your entire team to hear and participate in insightful discussions with
thought leaders in our industry.
How
do your audio conferences work?
First,
call 800-486-8201 (+1-202-298-8201) to register. Then watch for the dial-in
instructions to arrive by email one week before the live event. After you've
gathered your team around a speakerphone, dial the number provided, give the
live operator the name of the registrant and listen to the panelist's presentations.
A Q&A period will follow when you can ask questions concerning your specific
needs. Instructions will be provided during the audio conference.
Will
there be handouts?
In
most cases handouts are not provided. If they are, you will receive the
handouts with your dial-in instructions one week before the live event.
Can
I patch more than one phone into the call?
No. Your registration entitles you to ONE telephone connection at ONE
physical location. Any transmission, retransmission or republishing of the audio
portion of this conference is strictly prohibited. This prohibition includes
patching more than one phone into the call or making the call available to any
second location through a conference call. You can have unlimited attendance
in one room with a speakerphone. Discounts are available for additional
locations in your organization. Call 800-486-8201 (+1-202-298-8201) or write

is easy and convenient. All you need is an MP3 player, such as Real
Player or Windows
Media player, to listen to the audio files (if you don't have the software,
click the links to download and install them). Within minutes of submitting
your order, you should receive an email confirmation with a link to the audio
file and detailed instructions.

Questions
about the discussion forums:
What
are Restructuring Today's discussion forums?
The
discussion forums are provided as a way for subscribers to ask questions, seek
opinions, offer advice and in general communicate with other subscribers.
Do
I have to subscribe to use the forums?
Yes,
you have to subscribe to use the forums.
What
are the policies regarding posting my comments?
In
order for the discussion forums to work, we ask that you follow these guidelines:
- Do lead by
example: nothing improves a forum more than posters who reason sharply,
write well, and have some perspective about it all. Be one of them.
- Do not post
commercial messages: this means don't use the discussion forums for self
promotion.
- Don't violate
poster privacy: don't reveal online private or personal information of another
individual. If you are asked for a friend's email address, the best advice
usually is to forward the request to the friend. He or she can then decide
whether to respond.
- Do keep it
clean: a difference of opinion between subscribers is acceptable but refrain
from abusive attacks, engaging in senseless flame wars and using profane
language.
- Do use common
sense: if you read a post that sounds too good or strange to be true, it
probably is.
- Do stay on
topic: if you are going to reply to a post, make sure you are placing it
in the correct area. Use the reply button below the original post.
- Don't spam:
post your message once
- Don't play
games: don't represent yourself as another person, create or use another
screen name to avoid a revocation of posting privileges, misrepresent the
site or your role in it, and don't misattribute a contribution you've made.
