SpeakerScore’s evaluation tool is not SurveyMonkey or Google Forms. We do not ask you to develop your own complicated feedback questionnaires. Instead, we have worked very hard to develop the four universal parameters on Expectations, Value, Interest and Presentation that you need to ask your audience to find out how well the talk went.
From these 4 universal questions, we calculate your total Speakerscore on a scale from 0-100 for the talk based on your audience feedback.

Since we already did all the heavy lifting in terms of figuring out the core questions, all you need to do is add date and info on your event and the evaluation form is good to go.

Once you receive the feedback, you can compare and benchmark your SpeakerScore against yourself and other speakers. This would not be possible if the questions asked differed from time to time.

We’ve boiled the feedback process down to four universal evaluation parameters applicable in any talk. These are the questions the audience rates on a scale from 0-100.
1. Expectations — Did you deliver?
“Expectations” measures how you fulfill your “contract” with the audience. Did people get what they came for? If the expectations in your contract are not met, the audience will not be satisfied — regardless of how fantastic your talk was.

2. Interesting — Was it stimulating to be in the room?
“Interesting” is the parameter measuring the internal quality of your talk. How did it feel to be there? Did you engage the audience or did they start checking e-mails on their phone?

3. Valuable — Was there a takeaway?
“Valuable” indicates what people take away from the talk. How did you enrich them? What did they learn? If your talk was not valuable, it was either a waste of people’s time — or purely an entertainment experience.

4. Presentation — Did you communicate?
“Presentation” measures the communication style, the body language and charisma of the speaker. It also measures the slides and the audio/visual tools used to purvey the message.

The big 4 sums up to your total SpeakerScore.
We recommend that you get at least 10 evaluations of each talk in order to make your SpeakerScore statistically sound. Don’t emphasize each individual evaluation, even phenomenal speakers score within the 0-40 interval from time to time.

If you receive more than 10 evaluations on your talk, use this guide line:
- Competent speakers usually score within the 60-85 interval.
- If you achieve a score above 80, it’s great.
- If you achieve a score above 85, it’s superb.
- If you achieve a score above 90, it’s world class.

If your score falls below 60, it’s an indicator of something not quite working out the way you intended. If this is the case, take a closer look at the different parameter scores, see if you can find a pattern – perhaps you consistently scored low on “Interesting” even though your “Value” parameter was above average. Could be a sign you need to develop new ways of keeping the audience’s attention.

Badges are an insight to your public speaking persona. To supplement the big 4 questions, we let your audience award you with “badges” for special qualities: Funny, expert, motivator, storyteller and teacher.

Badges help pinpoint the way you come across by indicating strong suits and weak spots. If your lecture scored many badges for “Expert” but very few for “Teacher,” it may be a sign that you suffer from “expert syndrome” and need to start improving your teaching skills.

Which qualities do you think you’d get awarded for?
Are you an expert or more of an entertainer? Run a SpeakerScore on your next event and find out.

Yes. One of the things public speakers often get asked is whether they can share their slides after the talk. You can upload your slides with the evaluation form and make them available to the audience – after they complete the evaluation of course.

Yes. In addition to the mandatory four parameters and the optional badges the audience can add their own thoughts and comments in a box at the end of the evaluation form.

You can share your scores with others using our widget. Or you can share your SpeakerScore on your free professional profile on speakerscore.com. It is simple and easy to do from within the system, and you have full control over the results.
SpeakerScore will never share your personal feedback with anyone, unless you actively requests it.

Yes. All features work well through the browser of your smartphone.
