Where else in my world could I find that little bit of magic experienced in a weekly Toastmaster gathering? We share the fun of learning about each other and the world we live in; there’s no place like it.
Toastmasters International is a world leader in communication and leadership development. Our organization has more than 332,000 memberships. Members improve their speaking and leadership skills by attending one of the 15,400 clubs in 135 countries that make up our global network of meeting locations.
Every Toastmasters journey begins with a single speech. During their journey, they learn to tell their stories. They listen and answer. They plan and lead. They give feedback—and accept it. Through our community of learners, they find their path to leadership.
We couldn't have said it better ourselves.
As an Upper Cervical Chiropractor, Toastmasters provides me with the safe and supportive environment to improve my communication and leadership skills. I am thankful to be growing through Toastmasters as I am recent graduate, working as an Associate Doctor at Upper Cervical Centers (Cedar Falls), and gaining the tips, tools, and strategies to be an effective communicator of Chiropractic to my community and the world.
The work I do is expanding rapidly. It involves meeting with ever larger groups on a biweekly basis with attendees looking to me as the subject matter expert. Going to toastmasters has helped me tremendously in being more comfortable talking to a large crowd. Toastmasters have helped me grow the confidence to lead presentations and discussions in large group settings that previously scared the heck out of me.
Toastmasters provide me a platform to enhance my communication and organizational skills. It also helps me to expand my networks. I love toastmasters since every time I learn something new by listening to various speakers.
Toastmasters have provided me with more than just an opportunity to hone my skills as a public speaker. It has given me insight in to how the organization has impacted the people it touches and how it really changes people’s lives. To me, that is a bigger drawing force than improving myself as a professional.
Joining has never been easier.
*Note: Members pay Toastmasters International dues of US $60 every six months. (Some clubs may charge additional fees.) All new members also pay a one-time US $20 fee.
