Submit A Situation
Turn Your Real-World Challenge into a Collaborative Success - Submit A Situation Presentation Form.
Sharing real-world situations is a core component of the Project ECHO model and a powerful way to build collective knowledge. Situation presentations help professionals learn from one another by exploring challenges, strategies, and opportunities related to employee wellbeing and organizational culture.
We welcome presentations that reflect the everyday realities of your work—common scenarios, emerging challenges, new initiatives you’re navigating, or complex situations where you would value input from peers and subject matter experts.
Your Role as a Situation Presenter
As a presenter, you will spend about 10 minutes describing your current work situation, the surrounding context, and the specific questions or challenges you would like the group to consider. After your overview, participants may ask brief clarifying questions to better understand the scenario. The heart of the ECHO experience is the shared dialogue that follows—participants and subject matter experts will offer insights, strategies, and perspectives based on their own experience.
Your role is simply to share your situation openly, highlight what you are hoping to learn or explore, and engage in the discussion.
Preparing for Your Presentation
The Situation Presentation Form gives us everything needed to support your participation.
No slides, PowerPoints, or additional materials are expected or required. The presentation and discussion are conversational, designed to be low-prep and grounded in real experience.
Please note:
- Information from your submitted form will be shared with session participants so they can understand the context ahead of time.
- Maintain confidentiality. When completing the form, please avoid including names, identifying details, or information that could reveal private or sensitive data about individuals, organizations, or personnel. Focus instead on themes, patterns, and situations.
After you submit the form, our ECHO coordinator will reach out to schedule a brief, friendly meeting to walk through the process, answer questions, and ensure we understand your goals so we can support you effectively.
