Embark on a Toastmasters odyssey as my guest, Graham Cairns, shares experiences from six of his current Toastmasters clubs and the completion of some 15 Pathways. From the first anxious steps at a local community club to the polished podiums of advanced groups, Graham has navigated the seas of public speaking and leadership, each wave offering new challenges and opportunities.
Featuring mentorship tales that shaped his path, this episode will leave you inspired to chart your own course in the Toastmasters world.
With the rise of digital communication, the art of online presentations has become paramount, and Toastmasters has been at the forefront of this transition. Graham shares how participating in three online clubs has helped him to develop these important skills.
We also hear about how, as an enrichment lecturer on cruise ships, the skills honed in Graham's club meetings have allowed him to captivate an audience amidst the waves. Get ready to discover how Toastmasters not only prepares you for the boardroom but also for the unique challenges of addressing a transient, ocean-faring audience.
Finally, Graham reflects on the essence of Toastmasters - its ability to nurture growth through active participation and its evolving mission to develop leaders. Don't miss out on this episode as we celebrate the journey, the growth, and the undeniable power of Toastmasters through the vast lens of Graham's experience.
