Control of the Lectern
• The lectern is usually the sole control point of the event (unless it is a bare stage event with no lectern)
• Whoever controls the lectern, controls the event – period.
• The lectern must be occupied at all times to maintain order

Position of Leadership and Control
• The audience expects the speaker to control the event
• There is only one control point at a time
• The audience expects orderly transfer of control to another

Transfer of Control
• The audience expects the transfer of control to be:
• Smooth, not awkward
• Orderly and planned, not haphazard
• Gradual, not abrupt
• Respectful and dignified, not coarse or rude
• The control point, lectern, should never be abandoned or disregarded by the speaker
