How to WoW up your Workshop

Submitted by Edith B.


We know who knows how to put on a “Wow Workshop.” Lingo Advanced Communicators. On September 3, 2019, Toastmaster Edith B. set the stage for learning what workshops are all about and their relevance to real life. This was done in a timely manner, thanks to Rhys D. keeping track. Several members did presentations exploring the alternatives available for running a workshop (Dan M.), talking about making workshops fun, through Storytelling (Rick L.), reviewing tips on using handouts and PowerPoint presentations (Cherry C.) and enlightening us on the details on putting on Workshops (Eileen S.). General Evaluator Estella M. had several comments on the various aspects presented. Thanks to our guest from Riverbend TM club for attending and giving comments on the various sections of the presentations. They were very much appreciated. Looking forward to our next get together - a meeting September 17th re: “Managing A Difficult Audience” hosted by Toastmaster Estella M. and a workshop on October 1, 2019 on “Evaluating English as a second language” hosted by Eileen S.  Lingo welcomes all guests. We meet at Revera at Riverbend (103 Rabbit Hill Rd) at 7 pm.
