Toastmasters – vad är det? Finns det i Sverige? Speaking Circles?

”…One of the founding members has suggested creating a more positive version of the ‘Ah counter’ role for this particular club; at least during its early stages of development.  We’re calling the role the ‘Flow Evaluator’, and guess who’s trialling it out next week?……………..yep, me!  So, rather than look out for and count people’s use of inappropriate hesitations, filler words etc, I’ve to comment on their ‘flow’.

So, any ideas how I can do that?  Apart from the obvious – ie. observe where there’s a lack of inappropriate hesitations and filler words.  I’ve to keep my comments positive, encouraging and focussed on building people up, rather than pointing out their faults.  And generally speaking, to comment on the evening as a whole, rather than pick out individuals.  I think this role’s a really good idea actually.

Anyway, any ideas would be very much appreciated J  Thanks.
