Moderators are used for certain events and can be quite instrumental to the level of success your event will reach. That is why we at A-Speakers always recommend you book a professional moderator if you are dealing with a larger event of sort.
The choice of moderator can play a role in setting the mood for the event which is why it is important to pick a moderator whose profile fits with whatever it is you are aiming to do. If you wish to underline a feeling of entertainment you need to look for a moderator who fits that type of profile and if you are planning a very serious business conference you should consider choosing a moderator whose background signals this type of event.
The role of the moderator can vary from one event to another but typically the moderator will coordinate the various speakers and their talks and presentations, for instance during a seminar with a number of different speakers planned. Furthermore, it is the moderator’s job to make sure people get the chance to ask questions during Q & A sessions, to make sure time schedules are kept and to make the guests feel interested and excited throughout the event.
Finding the right moderator is not necessarily an easy task but do not despair. Here is our guide to the most important criteria:
The task of the moderator is to tie the event together, keeping track of time, theme and topics
The moderator should have a basic knowledge of the overall event theme even if they are not necessarily experts
It is important the moderator did prior research and feels fully prepared before the actual event
A good moderator knows how to listen and knows when it is better not to speak and leave the talking to others
The moderator should never try to be the center of attention
The task of the moderator is to tie the event together, keeping track of time, theme and topics
Good first impressions always make for a good start. This is why it is always a good idea to meet with your moderator before the event or have a phone conversation or such, so that you get a taste of the moderator’s personality before actually booking them. It also enables you to make it clear what exactly you are looking for in terms of the event, potential goals and concerns, etc.
A competent moderator will inspire and excite guests from the very first minute. The moderator is the one who makes sure everybody gets their say, who will tie the event together and set the overall tone.
We have a number of moderators who can help you with your event, both large scale conferences as well as debates. You will find a list of our moderators
