- #4 As members, you would attend regularly scheduled club meetings. The environment is to be friendly and supportive, and the self-paced program allows anyone to build confidence with each speaking assignment. Constructive evaluation is the heart of the Toastmasters program. Each time you give a prepared speech, an evaluator (one of you) will point out strengths and suggest improvements. <ADVANCE TO NEXT SLIDE>
- #5 The education program is an important part of every Toastmaster's journey and is a critical aspect of every club meeting around the world. The Toastmasters Education Program is based on a proven curriculum that enables you to develop communication and leadership skills one step at a time. The program is built on four guiding principles that have been in place since Toastmasters was founded in 1924: Experiential Learning–we learn by doing; by giving speeches and fulfilling leadership roles, we practice and improve Self-paced Program–we learn best at our own pace and comfort level Peer Feedback–through honest and supportive peer evaluation, we grow and improve Mentoring–experienced members encourage, guide and support us in our goals and help us to achieve more than we thought possible There are many opportunities for awards and recognition along the way. <ADVANCE TO NEXT SLIDE>

- #9 Within Toastmasters every individual has the opportunity for unlimited personal growth. You can use the tools you receive in Toastmasters to broaden your horizons as far as you’d like and you need not make the effort alone. You receive support from fellow members in general, and are also encouraged to develop positive mentoring relationships within the club that foster the personal growth of both mentor and protégé. The personal benefits of Toastmasters’ career-enhancing leadership and educational training ultimately leads you to become happier, more confident and one who can easily exchange ideas, messages and information with each other, with management, and with customers and clients. <ADVANCE TO NEXT SLIDE>
- #10 Rhea goes on to say, “Remarkably, by becoming a better communicator, I have become a better leader. My manager at work recognized my new communication and leadership skills, which earned me new opportunities in my career.” <ADVANCE TO NEXT SLIDE>
- #11 The world needs leaders. Leaders head families, coach teams, run businesses and mentor others. These leaders must not only accomplish, they must communicate. By regularly giving speeches, gaining feedback, leading teams and guiding others to achieve their goals in a supportive atmosphere, leaders emerge from the Toastmasters program. 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. Join your organization’s Toastmasters club and find YOUR path to leadership. <ADVANCE TO NEXT SLIDE>
