When you spot speakers there’s something else to consider. You should arrange a logical sequence of subject matter to permit continuity of thought. It makes for a better meeting.
An example — a speaker on “How To Approach Prospective Customers” should speak before a demonstration of the product. Another example — a speech on getting new customers should precede a movie on how to keep customers.
In planning your agenda you should have considered the sequence of subject matter. Stick to your plan. Don’t heed someone’s request to, “Let me talk first and get it over with.”
It also helps to produce a change of pace if you find ways to create variety. Sandwich women speakers between men. Place a speaker between a quiz game and a slide series. If at all possible, avoid having two speakers in a row.
