Which is your book title?

TOASTMASTER SESION OF  06/04/2016

If this article was the first chapter of a book, the title of today would be

“Inspiring with Toastmaster.” By Sean.  

It was his first experience as Toastmaster and our sweety Sean prepared a very nice theme about what would be the title of the book about your life. It has been very inspiring and funny theme fitting in my opinion 100% with Toasmaster spirits.

The Technical team was composed by Miguel, Marc and Rayanne who remind us how important is to count and be aware of all the aha words in our improving process .

Jelena, our president, started inspiring by sharing with us how a good speaker can keep your attention during 2 hours.

First speaker:

Cristina started her third speech of manual communication book with a very motivating speech about Urban Walking. This is a real sport invented in L.A in 2004. She invited us to connect with all the benefits of this huge International movement:

It’s a healthy activity, good for cardio vascular system but also reduce anxiety, stress and depression. With Urban walking you know new places of city where you leave and it’s very cheap. Finally Cristina invited us to participate in Barcelona barnatresc walk event.

Second speaker:

Paul, a veteran Toastmaster speaker shared with us how is organized Toastmaster Club committee” through a very funny and very famous International Toast master radio show. Juan Miguel as radio show man brought a lot of humor added to Paul’s charisma. This team was just amazing.

 If Toastmarter committee was a restaurant what would be the organization?

There is the one who likes the interaction and the one who are shy.  

The shy part: 

Secretary: The President presides at meetings of the Club, 

Treasurer is responsible for Club financial policies, procedures and controls.

President: The President presides at meetings of the Club, 

The one who likes interaction

Vice president of education: Plans and directs club programs which meet the educational needs of the Club members

Vice president of public relation: Develops and directs programs that inform individual members and the general public about Toastmasters International and about Club activities.

Vice president Membership: Plans and directs programs to retain and increase club membership which is the Toastmaster head hunter. 

Paul invited his radio audience to be part of committee, and when a listener from Italy asked: how can we become president? 

Paul answered :

Be patient, go step by step and start with easer roles.  

I think that this is a very good tip to apply to all aspect to our life. 

Hugo the “dancing machine” evaluator of Cristina speech caught the audience public attention with a very detailed, constructive and organized evaluation.

Laia as Paul speech evaluator gave us Carpediem emotion with her smile. She repeated very clearly Paul’s speech objectives inviting him (and us) to play with vocal variability and insisted with the importance a good call to action adding an emotional argument at the end of the speech.

Record of table topic “volunteers”

¿If you are the main character of the book what would be your story?

As Table topic Master, Beatriz enjoyed a lot, choosing in the public 6 volunteers of table topics speeches. She also remembered us 3 tips to make the best improvisation possible: In 30seconds think about:  

1.     The introduction

2.     The body

3.     The conclusion

Isabel, Maria, Cacha, Juan Miguel, Steve, Morgane share with us their special and funny improvisation stories.

I keep in mind, the secret to live with an Idiot, is to stay at work of Juan Miguel, and “Be normal is not being normal” for Morgane.

 

General evaluation made by Mariyana  reminded us that

“Practice is the muscle of your brain.”

Jelena, closed the session with this sentence I loved.

“Is not about the mistake but about the spirit”
