What if your passion for public speaking could turn into a lifelong journey of leadership and growth? This episode of The Talkative Toastmaster is a must-listen as we bring you the inspiring story of Nicky Jurd, a Toastmaster with 25 years of experience who began her journey at just 16.
Nicky shares the unique culture of District 69, where fun, camaraderie and connection reign supreme, and offers insights into her evolving goals and the joy she finds in expressing her extroverted personality.
Next, we shift gears to explore some of the executive leadership paths within Toastmasters, through the lens of Nicky's current role as District 69's Club Growth Director, and her role as Program Quality Director in 2024-25. We discuss the Toastmasters' leadership hierarchy, opportunities for personal growth, and the community impact members experience. We also discuss the post-COVID challenges of managing and growing Toastmasters clubs, with success stories from regions like Papua New Guinea offering valuable lessons.
Finally, we dive into the theme of connections, emphasising the importance of prompt communication and effective training for club officers and district leaders. From the excitement of district conferences to the responsibilities of district leadership roles, this episode offers a comprehensive look at the journey within Toastmasters and the skills needed to thrive - with a few laughs along the way!
