2. SPEECH PREPARATION WORKSHOP
11. Cover how to include humour in a speech;
12. Handling nervousness may be included;
13. Members can submit their speech for critical evaluation. (not clear; they can send it to their
mentor)
My comments and Lessons learnt :
1. As I mentioned in my earlier email, the time given for writing was only 70 minutes while our
recommendation is 150 min or 5 x 30 min. as given in the regimen given at the end. We limited
the toal duration to about two and a half hours fearing longer duration would send people to
other Friday activities (Zzzzz…….for example) .
Now that people want it, five hour or eight hour workshop may be conducted.
2. More frequent conduct of the workshop is in the power or club presidents and Area
Governors. (Don’t let them sleep on Fridays)
3. We have already shared all the material with the participants this time.
4. Humour aspect can be included in future workshops.
5. Nervousness issue is not within the realm of the
current idea. Rehearsal techniques may be given as
a separate write-up. Toastmasters literature has
some material in this. I leave it to senior
toastmasters to ponder.
6. Workshop on Persuasive and inspiring speeches is a
good idea. We need some time to think about this.
