Proposing toasts during celebrations dates
back deep into history, during which the role of toastmaster, or master of
ceremonies, developed to become an integral part of social events.
The Professional Toastmaster is a traditional
part of the British banqueting scene. A toastmaster's presence adds style
and professionalism to every occasion, and the familiar red coat adds colour
to the day. The toastmaster's expertise ensures that every event, however
formal or informal, runs smoothly and fulfils the highest expectations of
the host and hostess or organisers.
The
role of the toastmaster is to manage the event and to ensure that it runs
in exactly the manner the client wishes. Indeed, a professional toastmaster
may be considered to be the ultimate stage manager.
Having been briefed in advance of the function
by the client, toastmaster Peter Burrows will take responsibility on the day
for running the event, leaving the host and hostess, or function organiser,
free to relax and enjoy the occasion every bit as much as their guests.
Peter Burrows is skilled as:-
Often the only visible sign which indicates a successful toastmaster's
presence are the annuncments which smoothly guide an event.
Peter Burrows is an expert in procedure and etiquette whose
aim is to co-ordinate and steer the event to the clients requirements, with
the degree of formality appropriate to that event with both sensitivity and
empathy.
He is at ease in less formal situations where only a gentle,
guiding hand is needed. Nowadays, experienced toastmasters are being utilised
at conferences and company presentations, as they have that rare combination
of tact, diplomacy and management skills for the effective direction of large
numbers of people.
Peter's experience encompasses a very considerable breadth
of knowledge of protocol and event organisation. Like an iceberg, nine-tenths
of his activity is unseen, but his personality is anything but frosty - his
attention to detail and continual unobtrusive liaison throughout your event
ensures it flows, apparently quite effortlessly, to a successful conclusion.
