All lectures should be 45mins and leave the stage on time and accompanied by a quality powerpoint presentation. Q & A is not suited to cruise ships, although in come cases the Cruise Director may suggest this and will organise the timings. Guests will often have questions and want to talk to you,, we suggest a comment at the beginning or end of the presentations that they are happy answer questions in a certain lounge or area after the lecture. It is very important not to run over time, as this may affect your feedback.
