Purpose Of Evaluation

While I was revising the guidelines to perform the individual evaluator role last night, I came across the following passage which I think may be useful for club members to consider;

"The purpose of the evaluation is to make the speaker feel less self-conscious and a better speaker"

I personally thought some of the evaluations could have been a little more positive and my evaluation was probably a little too positive. There is a happy medium where speakers will benefit from a good evaluation.
