| How Toastmasters Can Help You Your success
in business is based on how effective you are. Through participation
in the Toastmasters Communication and Leadership program,
people from all backgrounds learn to effectively speak, conduct
a meeting, manage a department or business, lead, delegate,
and motivate.
How Toastmasters works.
- As your improved communication skills become obvious within
the workplace, increased visibility, recognition and promotion
will follow. Your improved presentation skills will win
you the respect and admiration of your colleagues and employees
- and make them wonder what you did to change! Leadership
skills acquired through participation in Toastmasters will
increase your management potential.
As a Toastmaster you will acquire an increased ability to
motivate and persuade, making you more effective as a supervisor
or manager.
- Members of Toastmaster Clubs have access to a wide range
of educational materials, including books, audio and videotapes,
and seminar programs available at reduced cost through the
Toastmasters International Supply Catalog.
How Toastmasters Meets Your Needs
- Established in 1924, Toastmasters International uses time-tested
programs that are continually updated to meet participants
needs.
Self-paced programs allow you to progress as rapidly or
gradually as your needs dictate.
The hands-on Communication and Leadership program provides
the "how-to" and the practical experience so critical
to progress.
Toastmasters Clubs meet at various locations in the morning,
at noon and in the evening. You'll be sure to find a Club
that fits your needs.
The Toastmasters program is cost effective, especially when
compared to seminars charging hundreds of dollars per day.
There is a $16 new member fee, and $18 dues every six month.
Clubs may also assess local dues to cover local expenses.
An atmosphere of professional camaraderie makes your Toastmasters
Club a unique learning environment -- informal, yet dedicated
to learning.
- The Toastmasters program can be tailored to meet your
personal objectives. Whether you desire improvement in prepared
or impromptu speaking, greater skill in the use of visual
aids, experience and knowledge is to be gained in the areas
that most interest you.
How The Program Works
The Toastmasters program exposes each participant to a wide
range of communication experiences.
- Each new Toastmaster receives a New Member Kit. The kit
features a copy of the basic Communication and Leadership
manual, general orientation materials and information regarding
skill improvement in areas such as speech evaluation and
the use of gestures.
The initial prepared speeches, as outlined in the basic
Communication and Leadership program manual, are designed
with the new Toastmaster in mind.
A variety of assigned speeches help the participant develop
competency in areas such as organization, voice inflection
and persuasiveness.
During the meeting's Table Topics session, members learn
to think on their feet by delivering short impromptu speeches,
lasting one to two minutes.
After giving a prepared speech, each Toastmaster receives
a constructive speech evaluation. This process recognizes
speakers for their strengths and provides valuable insight
into problem areas.
Upon completion of the basic Communication and Leadership
program, Toastmasters may participate in the Advanced Communication
and Leadership program. Participants may choose from specific
business oriented topics such as Speeches by Management
and Technical Presentations.
- Workshop style Success/Leadership programs are also available,
offering opportunities for further skill development in
areas such as leadership, public speaking and conducting
business meetings. These programs are especially effective
as in-house training and can be tailored to meet the needs
of your company.
