Recommend a Book with the #CityofLondonToastmasters!

On her #publicspeaking journey at the City of London Toastmasters, this book guided her to overcome the fear of talking in a large audience and inspired her to be more confident and deliver memorable #storytelling speeches.

Another great workshop at Edinburgh Advanced Toastmasters was delivered by Jim Emery. "Vocal Delivery on Steroids". It is impossible to say more about vocal delivery in such a short time!

If you missed this, don't worry. We will publish a video recording soon!

How to say everything yet finish on time?
Use structure!
Opening - set the scene & capture attention.
Main part - 3 key points on a topic.
Closure - summary & thank you.
Get your #publicspeaking to the next level! https://t.co/vK03BdmWpY

Virtual job interview booked? Dress professionally. Lighting is in front of you, not behind you. Use a contrasting colour background. Ensure wall behind you is devoid of clutter or use a plain virtual background if your device supports it. More tips at https://t.co/otR0lB6ltB

Do you think that the words #introvert and #publicspeaking are antonyms?
Not necessarily. Our fellow #Toastmaster Kay Heald shares how you can channel your introverted behaviour and gain #confidence when presenting
