Improve Your Speaking, Communicating, and Leadership Skills and Have Fun Too!
Here’s a good video I found that shows how to go through the Basecamp system to sign-off that you’ve completed one objective in the Toastmasters Pathways program so that you can advance to the next project.
Notable points from the video:
- Click “More” instead of the right arrow to get more information.

Gopi Kallayil is Google’s Chief Evangelist for Brand Marketing. In the April 2017 edition of The Toastmaster magazine, he was described as an active Toastmasters member for more than 20 years. The article also describes his reason for joining, “to become a more confident, articulate and persuasive communicator.”

More than 350,000 current members today once walked through the door for the first time to at least one of 16,000 Toastmasters clubs around the world and made the life changing decision to join. The process of joining a Toastmasters club is made simple when following these steps.
- Commit yourself to one full year of active membership to a Toastmasters club. Planning to only being part of Toastmasters for a month or two, or until you begin to feel more comfortable presenting, will shortchange your experience. It would be like deciding to learn how to ride a bike, but only… Read Full Post »
