Hi Brian, I like the idea of asking speakers to consider their colleagues to present in order to increase diversity (and to giver others a chance). I am not sure how to phrase that. But I guess if we would make it a suggestion or recommendation rather than a requirement. Having said that, I have presented at conferences that did require moderators to ensure 50% male speakers for a panel session for instance.
