Some months ago i was informed about toastmaster international activities (focused on communication and leadership development). I'd like to join local club but i prefer to have some feedback before to do it.
Have you experienced club activities?
What about your experience?
Do you suggest to join it?
Many thanks for your help

I have not personally taken part in any Toastmasters International events, but I had the recent opportunity to help a class of students from my business school alma mater prepare for interviews. Of those, one individual stood out for his confidence, storytelling ability, and capacity to exude strength of character without an ounce of bravado. The fact that English was his third language only added to my high appraisal. I asked him to what he attributed this ability, and he was effusive in his praise of Toastmasters and his experiences therewith.

of-course it's very useful. It really brings out the hidden potential from your inside. you have to give a prepared speech on your selected topics, sometimes they give a topic in the spot and ask to you talk about that for a min or 2 min. If you're regular attendee then they will put you to host the show for a day. I suggest every professional should join.

I had been a founding member of Islamabad ToastMasters Club and served as its President also. This is the best experience any professional can get. I will strongly recommend it to you.

We had a chapter internal to the company for a number of years. The participants praised the experience highly.
