Being An Event Host – Tip No. 43 – Get Speaker Info

London, UK

On each and every occasion where I’m hosting event and speakers need introductions – which is pretty much most of the time, I always speak to them in advance.

The things I need to know are:

1. What is the title (if any) of the talk.

2. How does the speaker want to be introduced (I set a time limit in most instances to between 15-20 seconds).

3. Will there by a Q&A session after talk?

4. What time are they expected to arrive at the event location

5. Any special needs. i.e. wheelchair access to stage.

6. What type of microphone they prefer.

7. Do they intend to come to a rehearsal….and finally…

8. Will they be speaking from behind the lecturn or not.
