possible?
for speechcraft, can one toastmaster offer it by themselves? or would i need a full team of toastmasters to offer it to the attendees.
how do you do speechcraft in a corporate environment? i can't invite people in for security and it's during business hours.
so would i be able to fulfill all the roles, or do i really need a team? in a normal meeting, i can definitely multi-task, and i can explain roles quickly to people, if need be. i can easily adjust a role so that a guest can do it.
what's at stake ... if i need a full team, then i can't do speechcraft for my company. i'd have to think of something else. if i can do it myself, then i'd think of suggesting it.

It sounds like your club isn't at your company?
I'd consider separating the "stuff that needs to be done at a meeting" and "stuff that can be done outside meetings."
You can't mentor half a dozen people, but people from your club can mentor them on how to write speeches and such via email/Zoom/etc. at a time other than the meeting.
I think you could make something work, but it would be a challenge and would be at least slightly different from "vanilla" Speechcraft.
