INTERACTIVE WORKSHOP LED BY HILARY BRIGGS DTM, IMMEDIATE PAST DIVISION B GOVERNOR AND FOUNDER OF EARLY BIRD SPEAKERS

There's a saying "If you're not growing, you're dying."  It can apply to us as individuals, as well as Toastmasters International as a whole.  Starting a New Club offers the chance to stretch your leadership skills to new levels as well as helping to spread the benefits of Toastmasters to more people.

Just as we have a supportive environment to help develop our speaking skills, taking the step of founding a club provides a safe space to work on your leadership skills too.  This workshop will feature input from those who've taken this brave step in the last 12 months, including the founders or Presidents from Bloomsbury Speakers, 1st London Toastmasters and Covent Garden Speakers, and help extract their learnings from the journey so far.

The aims are to:

• Inspire confidence so more members take up the challenge and start a New Club
• Share best  practice - and discuss some of the typical issues that arise - such as how to build a team and make it happen
• Draw out the leadership opportunities and their applications in the wider world

So whether you have aspirations to push your leadership potential to the limit, want to share the benefits you've gained from Toastmasters, with friends and colleagues, or simply want to find out more about what's involved, book your place now!

6.30pm for 7.00pm start
