Table Topics is the impromptu speaking section of a Toastmasters club meeting where members get to give a one to two minute answer to a question. That section uses questions asked by the Table Topics Master. Where does he or she get those questions?
In my July 7, 2019 blog post titled Club officers in
Toastmasters (VPPR and VPM) should use all the brains they can borrow I had
mentioned Lark Doley’s Golden Knowledge Base. Her web page on Club Meetings lists a .docx file for
D46_101 Ideas for Great Table Topics_Mark LaVergne and a .pdf file for D08_365
Sample Table Topics_John. Elsewhere there also is a .pdf with the 101 Ideas.
In my February 24, 2018 blog post titled Were you recently
visited by the Table Topics Bunny? I mentioned that a search for Table Topics
questions should also use the phrase “icebreaker questions”. At Conversation
Starters World you can find a web page with 200 Icebeaker questions (and also a
.pdf version).
