Please give a copy of these requests to the person who is responsible for audio-visual and room set-up arrangements at the meeting facility.

We appreciate your attention to detail and your willingness to partner with us in creating the very best experience for your audience.

  • Cordless lapel or lavaliere microphone. Jackie would like the freedom to move on the stage and within the meeting room. (If the room & audience are small enough, a microphone will not be used.)
  • LCD projector for a PowerPoint presentation. Jackie will bring her own Macintosh laptop computer and wireless remote control. Please provide a compatible high-end LCD projector. (The computer has standard VGA or DVI output.)
  • The PowerPoint presentation includes video clips so a sound patch cord from the computer to the room’s sound system will also be required.
  • Projection screen large enough to be seen by every audience member. It is important that the bottom of the screen is visible from the back of the room. The screen can be centered directly behind Jackie's speaking area or positioned in a front corner of the room.

  • Lighting
    The energy and “electricity” in the room are increased when Jackie can see the audience and when the audience members can see each other’s reactions. For this reason Jackie would like to have the house lights (excluding florescent lights) turned up full.
  • No head table or other obstacle between the lectern and the audience. Jackie appreciates the opportunity to connect with the audience by moving around and into the group, whenever possible.
  • Lectern with space for an 8.5 x 11-inch notebook.
  • Cocktail table for the computer — set right next to the lectern.
