Online Guide to Meeting Assignments
Facts and Figures
| Purpose |
 |
The object is to
learn how to put some flair and creativity into a type of presentation
that at first sight looks quite dull. |
| |
|
|
| When preparing |
|
Devise a mini-speech
that outlines an interesting fact or series of facts. |
|
|
It can be humorous,
astounding, heartfelt, inspirational, weird, hard to believe, or
whatever. The only real requirement is that it must be true. |
| |
|
You can add greater
impact by linking your facts and figures to the meeting theme. |
| |
|
As with all
assignments, prepare and rehearse to ensure correct timing. |
| |
|
|
| Before the
meeting begins |
|
Inform Chairman 1 of
your title, and how you would like him/her to introduce you. |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
What to do during your assignment |
|
You may need to use
notes for this assignment, especially where numbers are involved. The
challenge is to use them well, without over-relying on them. |
|
|
Deliver the mini
speech with due regard to pausing for impact, and to give people a
chance to absorb the material. |
| |
|
When you are
finished, hand back to Chairman 1. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
That is the end of
your assignment. You will be evaluated by the General Evaluator |
