Ever sat through a workshop or a presentation and found yourself craning your neck for the best view? That's because the seating arrangement isn't suited for the workshop format. Conducting a workshop or a class isn't as easy as just putting rows of chairs and tables together. You need to start to think about the room layout and in particular the seating style for your audience.
Whether you are setting up a business presentation, training classroom, hosting a full scale gala dinner or product launch, the arrangement of the seating can make all the difference. You have invited your audience to communicate a message, so it’s important that your audience is seated in the best way to achieve the maximum impact for your message!
