**How We Become Our Own Speaker/Leader, One Lunch Break At A Time**

***What is Toastmasters?***
Toastmasters is a non-profit international organization that builds confidence and teaches public speaking skills with the variety of the following programs:

* Breaking the Ice with General Introductions
* Preparing & Delivering Speeches
* Asking & Answering Impromptu Questions
* Giving & Receiving Constructive, Peer-to-peer Feedback
* Recognizing our Best Effort with Award Ceremony

These practices help us meet our personal and professional communication and leadership goals.

***Why join?***
The mission of the Toastmasters International is as written:
*"We provide a supportive and positive learning experience in which members are empowered to develop communication and leadership skills, resulting in greater self-confidence and personal growth".*

But personally, I simply want:

* to observe or to present,
* to listen or to speak,
* to feel or to move,
* to gasp or to sigh,
* to **understand** and to **be understood**.

Toastmasters, as a program, offers the resources and support for fulfilling these primal yearning for stories.
