The purpose of giving the Inspirational Quote is to help set the tone of the evening and inspire those speaking. It should impact in a positive and thought provoking way that energizes the room.
In our club, this role is often combined with the Grammarian role.
You may want to print off copies of the quote to hand out for people to take home.
During the meeting
Before the prepared speakers begin, the TME (Toastmaster of the evening) will ask you to deliver your inspirational quote.
You are allocated 1 minute to convey this information to the audience.
This is a moment to motivate the speakers that follow you by sharing words of wisdom that ignite their imagination so that they deliver their best.
This role provides an opportunity for the member to research, which is a skill required for other areas of the Toastmaster journey.
