Here were the Table Topics questions I used for our meeting today. If you’re not familiar with Toastmasters, it’s a great professional development organization and most clubs’ meetings are a lot of fun. Ours are. Table topics allow for impromptu speaking opportunities so member are better able to respond and interact to questions they haven’t had time to prepare for.
Question #1:
Because of a lack of funds, your family has planned to do a “staycation” this summer. What will you do in and and around the area for a 2 week vacation?
Question #2:
Your closest friends have called you up with a challenge: to scale Mount Everest in late August. If money and time off are not issues, are you in or out? Why or why not?
Question #3:
Pick a US state you’ve never been to. Why would that state make a good vacation for you and what would you do while you were there?
Question #4:
A long lost uncle you never knew about has died. He has left you US$1 million, but there’s a catch. You must spend it all on a vacation to be taken by June 30. What is your vacation like and how will you spend the whole million?
Great questions! If you don’t mind I will use a few at my next Toastmasters meeting.
By all means!
