Cherchez-vous comment améliorer votre capacité de vous exprimer plus aisément? Comment communiquer vos pensées de manière plus structurée? Comment se sentir plus à l’aise à parler en public?
Venez alors visiter le Club Saint-Lawrence Toastmasters Montréal pour en savoir plus.
Voici le programme pour la réunion du 6 novembre 2018.
“You’re scheduled to give a speech in a week or two. You’re sitting at your computer, staring nervously at a blank screen. Countless questions swirl around in your mind: How should I start? How do I get the audience’s attention? Should I use humor? Do I need an outline? How do I conclude?
As a Toastmaster, you have access to resources galore. Each speech project has its own templates and guidelines. You also have mentors to help you over hurdles. But wouldn’t it be nice to have a quick, handy guide to all the basics? A one-stop shop that concisely covers the fundamentals of how to write an effective speech—Speechwriting 101, condensed into a few magazine pages?”
You can read more in the October 2018 issue of Toastmaster magazine, a monthly magazine available to all members.
If you want a friendly and safe environment in Montreal where you can practice giving a speech, then Toastmasters meetings are a perfect medium. Come visit the St-Lawrence Toastmasters Club in Montreal to find out more.

Voici le programme pour la réunion du 2 octobre 2018.
Nous aimerions accueillir Delphine au Club St-Lawrence Toastmasters Montréal.
Italo (président de notre club) souhaite la bienvenue à Delphine
Nous aimons bien demander à nos nouveaux membres ce qui les a incités à se joindre à Toastmasters. Voici ce que Delphine nous explique :
Je suis toujours à la recherche de me dépasser, je vais là où je sens que j’ai besoin de travailler, là où je sens que ma peur m’empêche de me réaliser pleinement.
Avec Toastmasters, je souhaite acquérir la confiance et l’assurance de pouvoir exprimer mes idées, mes opinions, mes croyances à tout public.
Apprendre l’art de la communication avec leadership et plaisir.

One of the many skills that we get to develop at Toastmasters is the ability to prepare and deliver powerful speeches that can inspire an audience, and even persuade with power so that people will want to take action.
Here is Harrison Ford speaking at the Global Climate Action Summit that took place in San Francisco recently.
(From: NowThis. Full speech can be found here or here.)
If we focus on the content of the speech, we notice that he inspires the audience by appealing to noble motives and challenging the audience to achieve a higher level of beliefs or achievement. He does this, for example, by speaking with passion and by using logic and emotion to support his position. Here are some excerpts:
“You’re here, I’m here, because we care. Not just for today. But we care passionately for the future.”
“While you work to recognize the challenge of climate change, I beg you, do not forget nature. Because the destruction of nature today accounts for more global emissions than all of the cars in the world. We can put solar panels on each and every house. We can even turn every car into an electric vehicle. As long as Sumatra burns we’ll have failed.”
“Nature doesn’t need people; people need nature.”

Le Club St-Lawrence Toastmasters à Montréal aimerait chaleureusement accueillir une nouvelle membre Lisa.
Italo (président du club) accueuille notre nouvelle membre Lisa
Nous avons l’habitude au club de demander à nos membres de partager les raisons pour lesquelles ils ont décidé de se joindre à notre club. Voici ce que Lisa nous mentionne :
J’admire les personnes qui attirent l’attention en racontant des anecdotes à propos de tout et de rien, d’histoires professionnelles, de famille, d’échec ou de succès. Ces personnes font souvent rire naturellement. Lorsque l’on s’y arrête, on réalise que ce sont souvent des histoires anodines. Pourtant, il y a une écoute et une attention très particulière.
Ce que j’espère développer chez Toastmasters, c’est l’art de m’exprimer naturellement, de raconter des histoires qui suscitent l’écoute, des questions ou des émotions… pour forger un dialogue.

Voici le programme Toastmasters de la soirée du 11 septembre.
Welcome back to the St. Lawrence Toastmasters Club in Montreal! After a well-deserved and relaxing summer break, our club meetings are now back in session.
We meet every Tuesday evening from 7 PM to 9:05 PM.
How can Toastmasters help you to become a more effective public speaker and a stronger leader? By helping you to develop your presentation skills and giving you a safe environment in which to practice.
Here is an example of the sort of advice that you might get from attending a Toastmasters meeting. This is a short video by Simon Sinek, a renowned TED Talk speaker, where he shares some of his best advice about how to begin your presentations.
“The best way to do it is to start with some sort of story, metaphor or analogy that captures the idea that you’re going to be presenting about. […] A story that is emblematic of the end result.”
If you’d like to find out more about how Toastmasters can help you improve your public speaking skills, then don’t hesitate to come visit us!
