Since 1924, Toastmasters International has helped people from diverse backgrounds become more confident speakers, communicators, and leaders.

Master Leadership & Management Skills

Communication skills are a huge part of how Toastmasters helps professionals, but they go hand-in-hand with leadership skills. Since 2011, Toastmasters has emphasized leadership and developed the tagline, “Where leaders are made.”

Toastmasters is known for its well-organized and engaging meetings. They get that way through strong leadership. Members sharpen and practice leadership skills by running engaging meetings and special events.

Toastmasters members have endless opportunities to polish this skill that is so crucial for career advancement.

What does the club experience offer?

What is your advice to students who are interested to join Toastmasters, but are not brave enough to take the first step?

How do I learn and grow?

In addition to the supportive learning environment in the club, there is a structured education program called Pathways.

What is the Pathways learning experience?
Pathways is Toastmasters’ exciting, interactive, and flexible education program open_in_new.

With 11 paths to choose from (and more in development), you have the option to pick which skills you want to focus on.
