Mutual support
We had fewer participants than usual at this meeting, and one of the speakers had to cancel her participation due to a family reason. This was inevitable, but still posed some challenges to the participants.
A lot of people stepped up adn took an additional role. Yuko, the first Prepared Speaker, took the role of the Ah-Counter and paid attention to unnecessary sound and filler words that distract the audinence, making the speeches less effecrtive. Michiko, the third Prepared Speaker, took the role of the Timer and helped the speakers with their time management. Hideo came up with the idea for all the arrangements including the addition of a rare role of the Topics Evaluator to provide feedback and suggestions to impromtu speeches int the Table Topics Session. Taka, the General Evaluator, took this added role and provided feedback.
Though it was unfortunate to have fewer members, we worked together to make this meeting as effective and educational as usual.
