It is presented as a formal suggestion to the meeting members with another member seconding the motion before a discussion on the subject and vote on whether to accept or reject the proposal.

A motion is the topic under discussion (e.g., “I move that we add a coffee break to this meeting”). After being recognized by the president of the board, any member can introduce a motion when no other motion is on the table. A motion requires a second to be considered.
The Chair has the same right to make or second a motion or to debate as the other Board Members. The role of presiding officer need not be assigned to another Board Member while the Chair exercises these rights.
Robert's Rules of Order provides for four general types of motions: main motions, subsidiary motions, incidental motions, and renewal motions. The most important are main motions, which bring before the organization, for its action, any particular subject.
Propose the Motion The presiding officer recognizes the member. Member proposes a motion. When a member of the assembly wishes to discuss a topic or agenda item, he/she must first move that it be approved for discussion. To introduce a motion, say “I move that …” followed by a statement of the proposal.
The Four Stages Of The Meeting Making an impact: you never get a second chance to make a first impression. Likeability and building rapport: attending to small talk. Uncovering needs: asking the right questions and listening. Demonstrating capabilities: presenting and articulating a compelling message.
Any member of the meeting, who has a right to participate and vote, can raise a motion. They must be recognised by the chair and given the floor to speak. If another member seconds the motion, it moves forward for discussion.
A motion is a proposal that the board will vote on. It can be something as simple as approving the minutes from the last meeting to something as important as appointing or removing a board member.
