leadership roles at toastmasters
Unlike other training programs, where you learn how to be a successful leader by reading books and attending lectures, Toastmasters provides members opportunities to gain practical leadership experience while helping them to learn and grow in their professions and their personal lives.
There are opportunities to gain hands-on leadership experience at all levels of the organisation starting from Club level, through Area, Division and District levels, and all the way up to World Headquarters!
Each leadership role plays an important part in the mission of Toastmasters International: We empower individuals to become more effective communicators and leaders.

Club Leadership
Serving as a club officer is a great responsibility and an exciting opportunity. Your term of office is filled with chances for you to renew your perspective, practice teamwork, and develop your capacity to translate values and strategies into productive actions.
To help serve their members club officers are trained through COT (Club Officer Training) and district sponsored TLI (Toastmasters Leadership Institute) events through the year.
The executive committee of a Toastmasters club consists of eight club officers with the Club President serving as the Club Executive Committee chair.
Working as a team, the Club Executive Committee must manage all business and administrative affairs of the club. The Immediate Past Club President provides advice and guidance as requested by the Club President.
