Ever wondered what actually happens during a Toastmasters meeting? Let’s take you behind the scenes.
A typical meeting starts with a warm welcome from the Sergeant at Arms, followed by the Toastmaster of the Day who acts as the meeting host. The agenda includes:
- Prepared Speeches: Members deliver speeches from the Toastmasters Pathways program.
- Table Topics: A fun impromptu speaking segment where members answer surprise questions.
- Evaluations: Constructive feedback is provided to speakers, focusing on strengths and areas for improvement.
Other meeting roles include Timer, Ah-Counter, and Grammarian, each contributing to personal development.
Toastmasters meetings are structured, yet informal and friendly. It’s a safe space to practice, learn, and grow.
