[edit] About the proposed GGC club

  • Who? Membership will be open to GGC students, staff, and faculty
  • What? The mission of a Toastmasters Club is to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every member has the opportunity to develop communication and leadership skills, which in turn foster self-confidence and personal growth.
  • When? Most Toastmasters clubs meet weekly or bi-weekly. Hopefully, by the end of Spring 2008 semester, we will be able to establish a regular meeting day and time. For now, a series of organizational meetings are planned to
  1. Begin practicing speaking and leadership skills
  2. Introduce the GGC community to Toastmasters
  3. Determine club name and dues
  4. Complete necessary forms to charter a club (both at GGC and with Toastmasters International)
  5. Elect acting officers
  6. Determine meeting time and frequency
  7. Help publicize the club to increase membership
  8. Determine whether to start a Gavel Club or formal Toastmasters Club
  • Why?
    • Learn by doing, not listening to lectures
    • Learn how to prepare for class presentations
    • Increase confidence when responding to impromptu interview questions
    • Network with other area Toastmasters clubs
    • Practice running effective meetings
