What's in it for me

Mentorship

Build out the mentorship framework

Members Must Talk Every night

Three Speeches Per Meeting?

What do we want? More opportunities to speak or awards and recognition

Do we want to roster people on?

create more space in the meeting i.e. for awards or other segments

Speech craft courses & open meetings

create an intensive course for people

Every club should do it at least once a year

District help to advertise?

To become a distinguished Toastmaster you need to facilitate this a speech craft course

attract new members

People dropping out last minute

People have speeches planned so they have one up their sleeve

People let VP Education know when they have holidays in advance

Why do people drop out? This is the bigger question!

Specify the timeframe members need to give notification within

Reduces peoples time to prepare

How do you balance being fair to members and accountability

what are the consequences of pulling out last minute?

They lose their chance at the role (especially speaking role)

Member find someone to replace them (send an email directly out to members)

Toastmaster of the Evening making sure experienced members are on replacement roles

New Members Know what they are doing (when new to role)

Hyperlink the link to the role guides for all members and including a line around the lines of "if you aren't sure about your role check out the role descriptions here" https://toastofbroadway.org.nz/speaking-resources/

Make sure members know the roles are on the website
