Opportunities today move at the speed of light, or perhaps, a 30-sec elevator ride.  If you aren’t ready, you could miss valuable opportunities to promote your ideas, advance your career, or land that big deal you’ve dreamed about. 

So I ask you again -- Are you ready?

 

Table Topics can prepare you for those 30-sec opportunities.  Rather than avoiding this impromptu speaking practicum, welcome it as your opportunity to practice the skills you’ll need for that 30-sec elevator moment when opportunity presents itself. 

 

Practice outside of your Toastmasters meeting as well, by preparing a few

30-second informational responses to questions people may ask you about Toastmasters, such as...

 

        What is Toastmasters?

 

        When are meetings held?

 

        What happens at a meeting?

 

        Why are you a member?

 

        How can I benefit as a member?

 

        What’s expected of me as a member?
