Managing Your Speaker Dashboard

Written by Benjamin Dell

Your Speaker Dashboard is where you can review the information the event organiser has shared with you, update your speaker profile, manage your talks, and collect any promotional materials for the event.

What you can edit depends on the settings chosen by the event organiser. If you do not see one of the options below, the organiser may be managing that part of the event for you.

Access your Speaker Dashboard

  1. Open the speaker invite email from the event organiser.

  2. Follow the link in the email to access your Speaker Dashboard. If HeySummit asks you to set or reset a password, follow the password email and then return to the dashboard link.

  3. Bookmark the dashboard once you are signed in so you can return to it later.

You can also use the account menu on the event site when you are signed in and choose Speaker Dashboard.

If you cannot find the invite email, cannot sign in, or do not see the event after signing in, contact the event organiser. They can resend your speaker login details or check that your speaker record is linked to the correct email address.

Review your speaker profile

On the dashboard, look for the summary card that says Review and update your speaker details. Use this to check the information attendees will see on your public speaker page.

Depending on the event settings, you may be able to update details such as your name, email address, company, title, timezone, bio, expertise, social links, headshot, profile images, and intro video. Click through the Details, Bio, and Media steps, then save your changes.

Manage your talks

Open My Talks from the left-hand menu to review the talks you are part of.

For each talk, you may be able to preview the public talk page, edit the talk description, add attendee handouts or links, choose or request a preferred time, and manage video, broadcast, or replay details. These options only appear when the organiser has enabled them for speakers.

Some broadcast settings remain organiser-only, especially webinar integrations, speaker join URLs, chat embedding, reminders, and playback settings. Contact the organiser if you need something changed and cannot edit it from your dashboard.

Use the dashboard menu

The left-hand menu may include extra areas depending on how the event is set up:

  • Open Slots: choose from organiser-created talk times if the event uses open-slot scheduling.

  • Insights & Data: review attendee numbers, page views, registration insights, or attendee data if the organiser has enabled speaker access.

  • Offers and Giveaways: add offers, giveaways, or bonuses to share with attendees.

  • Swipe Copy: copy promotional text prepared by the organiser.

  • Media Assets: download event graphics, talk promo images, or other files the organiser has shared.

  • FAQs: read event-specific answers prepared by the organiser.

Access the event as a speaker

When you have been invited to the Speaker Dashboard, your speaker login also lets you access the event content. You do not need a separate attendee ticket just to watch other talks while signed in with your speaker account.

If the organiser has enabled a private chat inbox for speakers, you may also see a message inbox on the dashboard.
