Inner West Speakers Toastmasters, Guests Welcome! 1st & 3rd Thursday every month

About this event

Are you looking to build confidence, improve your communication skills, and become a better leader—all in a supportive and positive environment? You've found the right place! Inner West Speakers Toastmasters is part of Toastmasters International, a worldwide nonprofit organisation that helps people from all walks of life become more effective and confident speakers. This meeting is perfect for you if: • You get nervous speaking in front of groups (or even the thought of it!). • You want to structure your thoughts more clearly and persuasively. • You need to give better presentations at work. • You want to practice thinking on your feet. • You're looking to meet new, ambitious, and friendly people. 🤔 What to Expect at a Meeting: Our meetings are fun, structured, and educational. Here’s a typical agenda: 1. Welcome & Introductions: A warm welcome from our Toastmaster of the Day. 2. Prepared Speeches: 2-3 members deliver speeches from the Toastmasters Pathways learning program. These are crafted, rehearsed, and focused on specific objectives. 3. Table Topics® Impromptu Speaking: This is the most exciting part! Volunteers (including guests, only if they want to!) get to practice thinking on their feet by answering a random question in 1-2 minutes. It's a blast and great practice! 4. Constructive Evaluation: Every speaker receives thoughtful, positive feedback from an assigned evaluator. This is where the real learning happens! 5. Awards & Closing: We recognise the best speakers and evaluators and wrap up the meeting. As our guest, you can: • Just watch and learn. There is zero pressure to participate. • Introduce yourself if you feel comfortable. • Optionally participate in Table Topics® if you're feeling brave! ❤️ Guest Policy: Guests are always welcome! We'd love to have you. 💰 Cost: Guests $10 per visit. 📝 Please RSVP! Help us plan for seating and materials by clicking"Attend."
