One thing which speeds up rounds is the use of Stableford rules. If you can influence people to play those rules it stops the excessive searching for balls and slow finishing off of holes. If someone is having a nightmare their opponents can give them a gimme for an 8 rather than have them putt out. This is a big help with groups of visitors.

I've always found that rattling the ball up to their ankles while they're putting is most effective. Followed by a cheery apology of course. That works in Scotland where golf is a working-class/blue-collar game. I'm not sure how it would work in a posh English or US country club where the secretary is a retired Colonel!
