Bringing the gift of Toastmasters to new members and clubs drives me to serve you. Witnessing members develop into better versions of themselves each day is an amazing experience. Toastmasters growing and learning together....priceless.

- Jo Idoux, DTM, District 56 Director

Toastmasters helped me not only in becoming a better communicator, better leader, but also a better person. These skills I learned in Toastmasters helped me both personally and professionally. It is my time to give back and help other Toastmasters to grow and become better leaders and better communicators.

- Chandra Munagavalasa, DTM, Program Quality Director

“Let us share with others the benefits we have gained for ourselves.” Dr. Ralph C. Smedley.

I love my Toastmasters experience and enjoy sharing what Toastmasters has given to me, with others: Leadership Opportunities, Growth and Development Skills, and Empowering Mentorships. It is a privilege to serve our members and we strive to serve with Excellence.

- Sharla Ozen, DTM, Club Growth Director

Like me, many of you began this Toastmasters journey in search of growth (communication and/or leadership). Once you gain access to tools and resources, why stay? I stayed because someone saw my failed efforts and reached out to me, encouraged me and taught me how to lead. She helped me find my voice and gain the confidence I lacked. The efforts of one member, Carla Pope, is why I’m passionate about the Power of One. “Reach One, Teach One, Keep One” is not a slogan for me, it’s my passion. Like Carla, I want to be that One spark for someone else and encourage you to do the same.

- Rose W. Bradford, DTM, Immediate Past District Director
