Cottonwood Speakers Club

Improve your communication skills - Improve your life!
Cottonwood Speakers - affiliated to Toastmasters International - provides a friendly and supportive environment in which to develop and improve your communication and leadership skills – two vital ingredients for a vibrant social life and success in today’s business environment.

Public speaking regularly comes top in polls of people's fears. In one poll it even beat death, leading Woody Allen to quip -
'So they'd rather be in the casket than delivering the eulogy?'

If the idea of public speaking fills you with dread, or your presentation skills are in need of a little help (and isn’t that the case for 95 percent of us (99 percent?) – then why not come along to a meeting of Cottonwood Speakers Club?

Joining Cottonwood Speakers will give you the skills and the practice to banish fears about public speaking - but it is about MUCH MORE than that!

Even if you never speak before a large audience, the whole of the Cottonwood Speakers / Toastmasters experience will help you improve your personal and professional life far beyond just the public speaking skills you will develop, helping you to:

- make best use of networking opportunities (the best way to a better job and greater business success)
- attain greater self-fulfillment, through overcoming fear
- become more self aware
- develop stronger interpersonal skills
- listen carefully and attentively
- resolve disagreements constructively
- exercise your intellect and sharpen your mind
