Allowing the audience to ask questions after your presentation is an excellent way to reestablish a message. In addition, because audience members can ask for an explanation, the group targeted is less likely to leave your presentation unclear of the ideas you discussed. Some believe the benefits of a question and answer session is vital and is actually another presentation by itself.

In this free instructional video series, let a communications and public speaking expert show you how to handle a question and answer session calmly and professionally. She explains the benefits Q & A sessions can provide and how important gestures and eye contact are crucial. This step-by-step video series will help you prepare to stay calm, cool and collected during the toughest part of any presentation.
