How to do the GENERAL EVALUATOR Role at a TOASTMASTERS Meeting

[@anandakumarsanthinathan4740]

Excellent. Turning around the lectern to use full body language and to use the third person are great pointers. Thank you, Wade. Happy Speaking and Happy GE'ing !!

[@wadepaterson]

You're welcome! Glad these pointers were helpful. Happy speaking to you as well!

I would not have thought of third-person evaluations for each role. Great insight. I'm sure my GE will be better off just watching this video. Self improvement is what the organization is for. I achieved next level now. Anytime I can look/feel more intelligent at the lectern is a great confidence builder. Thanks bro.

So glad this video was helpful for you!

@@wadepaterson Upon calling of the vote counts for best speaker, evaluator, table topics person, several members also slid me a note indicating they were pleased with how consistent my flow was. I'm sure your third-person approach had much to do with their being satisfied (not knowing I was purposely applying third-person to the GEs).

[@OnHoldAt50]

And the General Evaluator doesn't normally get evaluated. That was so cool.

[@wadepaterson]

@@OnHoldAt50 So cool! Glad to hear that :)

Great break down! Wow! Wade, your videos are always on point.

[@wadepaterson]

Thanks Nina! You're too kind :)

[@pmendonca4623]

I love your tips I had no idea General Evaluator is to evaluate all roles that does not have an evaluator. Well said and keep sharing your experience.

[@wadepaterson]

Thanks for watching! I think some clubs treat this role a bit different, but this is how our club approaches it!

[@samehmakky8911]

Amazing explanation! ✌🏻

Your videos are helpful and insightful. Thank you for sharing!

You're very welcome! Thank you for watching!!

In certain cases, the President or the next highest ranking officer can give a written evaluation for the General Evaluator. This can be by request of the GE, and/or to fulfill some criteria such as for obtaining GE certification.

[@wadepaterson]

That's great to know and super helpful! Thanks so much!

[@sjinvestors250]

I been In toastmasters for a while now but never did general evaluator

[@wadepaterson]

Are you thinking of signing up now!? You should!

[@PaulaDTozer]

Is that your bar in the background?

[@wadepaterson]

It is.

[@rosalyndoshannassy4419]

I bombed out on this role at our last meeting. A bit discouraged, Wade

[@wadepaterson]

Oh no! What went wrong?

[@rosalyndoshannassy4419]

@@wadepaterson I got sidetracked by issues in the Club, politics, ambitious leader, listening to promises of moving up into positions etc, so much more. I had a quick look at your master evaluator video and plan to make notes. Still fragile.
