What would you like a workshop on?

Toastmasters

I’m going to run a workshop on December 2nd and would like some input from you on what it should be on.

TM Yang suggested that I explain the flow of the meeting, e.g., how to perform various roles on the day as well as how to prepare.

I was also thinking of explaining the educational programs, e.g., what happens after you get your ‘Competent Communicator’ and the leadership program.

If you have any ideas on what to do a workshop on, please let me know!

Helen
