Why Jordan & Sam Joined

I came to toastmasters thinking that I was a fairly good public speaker, but I still got the sweats and nervousness before I was the next to speak, which would usually ruin what I was trying to say and was somewhat embarrassing. After my first few months of toastmasters, I really started to control my emotions, and speak without having fear or having those jitters that would crush my confidence. Being a high level manager within a large company, I made it my goal to be a leader and speaking with a new confidence has enhanced my ability to chair meetings, motivate others, and develop my public speaking skills far beyond what I could have imagined.

Jordan Edwards, Vice President Membership


It was my turn to speak at the meeting of our engineering team. I was petrified. I had to join Toastmasters. It changed my life! Now, not only am I not afraid to speak in public, I enjoy it. I could never have imagined in my wildest dreams that one day, I could stand in front of a large group of people and speak comfortably, deliver a speech, and tell a joke. Well, I did it. If I can do it, anyone can!

Sam Dimou, Immediate Past President

 
Why Join Toastmasters?

Does the mere thought of standing up to say a few words fill you with fear?

If so, you’re not alone! Fear of public speaking is reputed to rank even higher than death! Whether it’s the upcoming wedding speech, an important pitch to a client, or simply making your point in a meeting of colleagues, it’s easy for the fear to take over – so that you don’t perform at your best. There are consequences for how you’re viewed by friends, family and your boss, with follow-on emotional and economic impacts.

So what would you like to do about it?

If you’re employed in a reasonable sized organisation, you might have already attended a presentation skills course. Whilst good, you might have found that the learning wore off quickly and you’re still not that much further forward. If you really want to tackle your fear, and also if you’ve not got access to in-house training, Toastmasters is the perfect answer.

Our wide network of clubs and their learn-by-doing programme are sure to help you become a better speaker and leader because you’ll be building your skills at a pace that you choose. And the regular meetings (typically twice per month) ensure you practice and develop your skills – just as you might build your muscles through regular exercise (well some of you might!).

Here are just some of the benefits of joining Toastmasters:

  • Regular and constructive feedback from other learners as you practice organising your thoughts and presenting them clearly
  • Access to a wealth of educational materials and resources on public speaking, listening skills and effective communication in conferences and meetings.
  • A free subscription to the Toastmaster, a monthly magazine that provides insights on communication, leadership, club activities and other relevant topics.

Members quickly gain the skills that allow them to excel at job interviews, present humorous, informative or special occasion speeches or give powerful business presentations.

Come along to our next meeting to find out more and see it in action. Guests are most welcome and can come as many times as they like.
