Margaret Page, CL joins us to explore the concept of etiquette, including how it applies to speakers. We look at her article, "A Question of Etiquette", in the August 2007 issue of the Toastmaster magazine, and discuss the historical roots of etiquette, and challenge a long-standing Toastmasters taboo: thanking the audience at the end of your speech (gasp!). We also put our guest to the test by shining the game show spotlight in her eyes, as we toss her a series of "tough call" situations a speaker may face, and pop the question: "To Apologize...Or Not to Apologize?" Does Margaret win the Grand Prize? Find out now!
Special Guarantee: If you listen to Margaret's advice, and take note of everything Bo and Ryan do wrong on this episode, you will be 95% ahead of most of the world when it comes to etiquette! So, come on down and join us for every Toastmasters favorite game show!
