You might be asking - what's a standing ovation? Standing Ovation is a compliment, an acknowledgement or a way to congratulate new members for taking the first step in Toastmasters and completing the first Project Speech from Competent Communicator manual. It is done as soon as the new member (speaker) completed presenting the first speech. The speaker will have to sit, while all the others who attended the meeting will rise and give a big hand and applause to the speaker. This will indirectly motivates the speaker to go ahead to proceed with the upcoming project speeches more confidently. Completing the first speech needs guts, and those who have completed the first speech are considered to have overcome the main fear of public speaking and deserves an applause.
UM TMC.
