“There should never be a story without a point, and there should never be a point without a story.”
David has come a long way from team leader in the local supermarket in Narracoorte, SA to heading up Torque Ltd in Auckland – via winning the World Championship of Public Speaking. His ambition is simple – to use his knowledge and skills to help you be more confident in public speaking.

This is for everyone who sits in Zoom sessions with the camera off – or never got round to doing the legacy “Communicating on Video” manual. Walter runs ScreenGrab – and from his work in children’s television, reckons anyone can look confident and professional on camera. This is a practical session – so if you’re sick of the camera showing off your bald patch or pointing up your left nostril, be there!

Accessibility used to be about hearing aids, accommodating wheelchairs, and screen readers, but its much more these days. From spelling Taupō properly, to being forced to write with your “right” hand, to being unable to hear people who insist on whispering, even “minor” disabilities affect confidence. Many, however, put up with them rather than speak up about them. This session is about how you can change that – and how Toastmasters can help.

Perhaps you have heard of Toastmaster’s Podcast Project. You may have even glanced at the objectives and tasks involved, felt overwhelmed, and quickly moved on. Be encouraged – this project is not as hard as it sounds, is available for every Toastmaster, and is actually a lot of fun!

Come join us for this engaging, interactive and informative workshop and discover the hidden podcaster within. Still hungry? Click here to learn more!
