As public speakers, we are not always called on to give a speech.  

Sometimes, because of our public speaking skills and the importance of  public speaking, we’ll be called on to run an event where other people will be speaking. In these cases we’ll be playing the role of the master of ceremonies or an emcee. For many of us this may be a new role to play. 

The key is to understand how you can use your public speaking skills to be a successful emcee.
