    Pierrette Michel - On why to renew your membership!

    Pierrette shares her story and how Toastmasters helped her to explore and discover skills she did not know she has. She found that as a Toastmaster, you are a leader in every role and that prepares you for leadership positions elsewhere. Annually, her club hosts the Youth Leadership Program which brings her joy because she can give back to the community and see young people grow. Pierrette also speaks highly of her club experience that enabled her to build lasting friendships and offers support beyond the club. Listen to the episode and be inspired to be a Toastmaster!

  6. Storytelling – the why, what and how of creating and using stories in speeches!

    Storytelling – the why, what and how of creating and using stories in speeches!

    In this episode, I interview Heather Keenan on storytelling and the why, what, and how of creating and using stories in speeches. Human history first passed down through stories but are still powerful tools to explain issues, persuade to take on an action, create a shared understanding, or increase retention of information. For example, in business today there is a push to use big data for decision making, but making sense of the data for an audience requires a good story. Using simple but powerful examples, Heather explains elements, tools, and techniques we should consider when including stories into presentations. Listen to this podcast and become a master of storytelling! https://www.toastmasters.org/magazine/magazine-issues/2020/may/the-anatomy-of-a-story https://www.toastmasters.org/magazine/magazine-issues/2020/oct/storytelling-lessons-from-photography https://www.toastmasters.org/leadership-central/the-leader-letter/march-2017 https://www.toastmasters-lightning.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/8300-Connect-with-Storytelling.pdf https://writingcooperative.com/how-to-craft-a-story-in-5-minutes-4999cedb29d9 https://www.cognizantsoftvision.com/blog/storytelling-5-ways-stories-can-benefit-you-and-your-business/ https://www.cognizantsoftvision.com/blog/storytelling-how-to-craft-an-impactful-story/
