Preparation, organization and collaboration are the keys for a successful event.

Based from the

gathered data, I made an outline to guide the host for a smooth flow of the program.
Take note of the following:

There should always be program guidelines and script to be used in any events for a clear
transition;
There should be appropriate adjectives prepared in introducing the speakers.

For the speakers & hosts:

Establish eye contact with the audience as often as possible;

Voice should be well modulated (not squeaky, low or loud);

Be optimistic and smile from the heart. =)

May this script be helpful enough.
