In the absence of proximal surfing in deepest Warwickshire and my lack of sufficient inherent balance I joined Spa Speakers to hone another craft, that of public speech. As a picker of stories I find myself privileged to be the club president at the helm of the good ship Spa Speakers, as it continues its course through a sea of inspirational and humbling narratives.
Peter, Vice President
I’m a veritable self-improvement addict, and when my friend mentioned Toastmasters to me I realised Public Speaking was a weakness of mine that I would like to overcome. I joined Spa Speakers to develop that skill. In the space of just a few months I’ve astonished myself with how quickly I’ve improved and gained confidence.
Robert, Secretary
I joined Spa Speakers to become more confident public speaker but have also found that in attending our meetings I have become a better listener and improved my leadership skills.
Andy, Sergent At Arms
Imagine a bird inside a glass coffin. That was me for most of my life. An invisible barrier prevented me listening, speaking, and sharing genuinely with those around me. Toastmasters helps me smash through that glass coffin, speak more freely and share my views in a more influential way.
Paul, Mentor Manager
Having given a short speech at a friend’s funeral and having been extremely apprehensive about doing so, I decided to confront my lifelong fear of public speaking by attending a toastmasters meeting. Everyone I met there was friendly and supportive and I soon settled in to become an active member of the club.
Guillaume, Public Relations
In my career, I have been mostly involved in Marketing, Sales and strategy activities. As Marketing Offer Manager, I need to communicate, train my team and our customers to our solutions which involve a lot of public speeches. Hence why I have decided to join Spaspeakers!
