Learning leadership on the
Toastmasters Committee

The Toastmasters Committee is the head of the Toastmaster Club body. Its role is to direct the club to conduct efficient meetings and to help the different members achieve their educational goals.

Accepting a position on your Toastmasters Club's committee can be a rewarding and enriching experience - if you approach it with the right mindset and the right tools.

You do not have to be experienced or have the necessary skills already, but you do need to have the willingness to learn that which you do not know. This means that you will often be asked to do things outside of your comfort zone, but that is the only place where you can start learning. And yes that is what Toastmasters aims to do: challenge your comfort zones. And as far as the Toastmasters Committee is concerned, challenging your leadership/responsibility comfort zone.

There are various positions on the committee with each requiring a different skills set (or willingness to acquire the skills set). From the taking of notes as club secretary, to the delegating and managing of the other committee members as president, there is certainly a position to help you learn the leadership skills you want to learn.

The list below shows the different positions generally available and if you click on the link, it will take you to a short interview with the person responsible for that position in a specific Toastmasters Club (CIS Johannesburg Toastmasters):
