Remember, being an M.C. is an honor. Treat this honor with careful consideration and you will add pleasure for everyone, even yourself. If conducting a meeting whether it is a small or large meeting, an agenda is needed. Remember the M.C. can make or break any program. Look at your listeners while you speak.
Eye contact is essential.
Watch and listen for feedback from attendees. If you have been selected to be an M.C., communicate with the leaders of the activity so you will know what is expected of you, then do your homework. If you must introduce people you don't know, find out all you can about them. Prepare your cards or notes. Research all announcing details and prepare all information to be communicated.
