RENO, Nev. (KOLO) – Toastmasters International is celebrating its 100th anniversary this October. The nonprofit is dedicated to building confidence and teaching public speaking skills through a worldwide network of clubs that meet online and in person. In a supportive community or corporate environment, members prepare and deliver speeches, respond to impromptu questions, and give and receive constructive feedback. It is through this regular practice that members are empowered to meet personal and professional communication goals.
Martha Greene, president of First Nevadans Toastmasters club, and Nick Connell, a local member, stopped by Morning Break to talk about the benefit the club has had on them and their desire to expand the club’s influence by welcoming new members.
Founded in 1924, the organization is headquartered in Englewood, Colorado with approximately 270,000 members in more than 14,000 clubs in 150 countries.
