How does Toastmasters help us?
Wednesday 17th, September 2008
Toastmasters clubs in Chennai and worldwide are divided into two broad categories...

Corporate Clubs in Chennai - Covansys (CSC), HCL, Scope International, Caterpillar, Satyam...

Community Clubs - Chennai Toastmasters (Egmore), Wordsmiths (Anna Nagar), Medleys (Adyar)

These clubs meet once in a week or once in a fortnight - the members in community clubs are between the age group of 18 - 84...

We all learn by doing... communicating and playing leadership roles... The project manuals as to the path we have to take to improve these key skills for success (communication and leadership) is sent by Toastmasters International when we become a member of the club...

By following the manuals and with the guidance of seasoned seniors from various sectors - we find chartered accountants, IT professionals, trainers, teachers, entrepreneurs and students in the club... we learn together and evolve as successful communicators and leaders... it is a step-by-step process and our involvement in the club leads to our success.

Visit www.toastmasters.org or www.chennaitoastmastersclub.org for more details

I would be glad to provide further details of this tested methodology..
