Picture this: you're in a room full of people, your heart is pounding, palms are sweaty and it's your turn to speak. Daunting, right? Our guest for this week's episode, Geoff Roberts, shows us that it doesn't have to be! A long-standing member of Mad Chatter's Toastmasters, and current Area 26 Director, Geoff shares his transformational journey from a timid speaker to a confident leader, thanks to Toastmasters.
We're not just talking about public speaking either! Our conversation explores a number of invaluable skills that Toastmasters can help cultivate. We spotlight how membership in this global organisation can be a game-changer in building workplace skills, enhancing productivity and improving relationships. We unveil the importance of active listening, a skill often overlooked, and how it can be used in decision-making processes. And here's a heads-up: Toastmasters is not just a public speaking club; it's a training ground for skills that can catapult your career!
Being an Area Director in Toastmasters also develops transferable leadership skills such as confidence, organisation and adaptability. Join Geoff and I as we discuss how our varied roles within Toastmasters have honed these skills.
There's a world of benefits to gain from Toastmasters, so why not give it a try? Tune in to be inspired, informed, and maybe even join us on this transformative journey.
