Then, Grace began speaking about her management experience.

She was humorous and witty, and she was neither too arrogant nor overly humble. She was perfectly tactful in her speech.

Her simple, ten-minute explanation had everyone engrossed. When she finished, there was a moment of silence before the crowd erupted into thunderous applause.
