  • Dale Carnegie

    Taken from the Manner of Speaking blog by John Zimmer (and incidentally, I highly recommend that blog). I just can't beat this one: Dale Carnegie (1888 – 1955) American Writer and Lecturer “Students of public speaking continually ask, ‘How can I overcome self-consciousness and the fear that paralyzes me before an audience?’ “Did you ever notice in looking from a train window that some horses feed near the track and never even pause to look up at the thundering cars, while just ahead at the next railroad crossing a farmer’s wife will be nervously trying to quiet her …

Welcome!

Communication and leadership skills go hand in hand. We need them constantly in our day to day lives, whether or not we're actually professionally leaders or speakers. If you are one of those people who seem to be born with these skills, then Toastmasters offers a great opportunity to hone those skills, and make yourself much more effective. Personally, I started off utterly terrified of any opportunity involving putting myself forward, of standing out.
