BECOME A BETTER SPEAKER
Toastmasters will give you the skills and confidence you need to
express yourself in any situation. You will become more persuasive and
confident when giving presentations, and improve your one-on-one
dealings with others.
BECOME A LEADER
Leadership is the art of persuading others to do what you wish. To
succeed, you need to communicate and work as a team. In Toastmasters,
you’ll do both. And you’ll find out how to vary your approach to
suit the needs of different people, whether they are an audience,
committee, or coworkers and managers.
IT REALLY WORKS!
Don’t worry! Everyone in a Toastmasters club was once at the level
you are now. The environment is friendly and supportive, and the
self-paced program allows you to build confidence with each
assignment. And you’ll love the applause! Constructive evaluation
is the heart of the Toastmasters program. Each time you give a speech
or fill another role, an evaluator will point out strengths and
suggest improvements.
WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I JOIN?
With more than 250,000 members in more than 12,500 clubs in 106
