Experience Quality Communication and Leadership Opportunities At Toastmasters
Welcome message from our District 86 Director
Welcome to District 86!
We are passionate about empowering people like you to excel in your communication and leadership skills so that you can make a lasting impact. It’s wonderful to see your enthusiasm for communication and leadership development through Toastmasters. Toastmasters International is indeed a fantastic platform for individuals to improve their speaking and leadership skills.
Constructive feedback is invaluable for personal and professional growth. Toastmasters’ structured approach to providing feedback helps members identify their strengths and areas for improvement, making it a powerful tool for self-development.
Our self paced educational program is a significant advantage, as it ensures that individuals with varying schedules can participate and benefit from Toastmasters. This inclusivity is essential for fostering a strong and supportive community of learners.
The global reach of Toastmasters and its positive impact on members from various backgrounds and professions is a testament to its effectiveness. It’s a place where individuals can gain confidence, refine their communication skills, and become effective leaders.
I encourage anyone interested in enhancing their communication and leadership abilities to consider Toastmasters as a partner in their personal and professional growth journey.
The future indeed starts here!
Nancy Movrin, DTM
District 86 Director, 2023-2024
