Alternatively, simply stand up and make sure the speaker is aware of your action.
Start the session exactly on time.
The speakers are instructed to include a minimum of 5 minutes (2-3 minutes for abstracts presentations) of their time slot for questions.
When there are two Chairs for the same session, plan in advance how and by whom the speakers are introduced.
