Resources
Included here are various documents, links and presentations to support your public speaking and leadership journey with Toastmasters and Spinnaker Speakers.
The main Toastmasters International website contains dozens of resources, produced by it’s members from around the world over many years, but it can be somewhat unwieldly, difficult to navigate and time consuming. We have collected here some of the best resources that are available.
New members at Spinnaker Speakers are given a short introduction to the TMI website and if you have the time and inclination you are encouraged to explore it. If you find something you feel our guests and members would benefit from please let us know and we will include it here.
You may need to be signed in to Toastmasters International to access some of these resources.
