Fellow speaker,
When answering a question in a question and answer session, frame your answer so the audience understands where you are in your response. Answer the question in one sentence if you can. If it's going to take awhile to answer the question, let the audience know. Saying something like, "That's a complex question and here are some of the things you need to be aware of. Firstly..." This will let the audience know that they are about to get an in-depth answer.
Framing,
Tim
