WHERE CAN WE learn to COMMUNICATE more effectively in the Brussels multi-cultural environment? --- IN THE BILINGUAL BERLAYMONT TOASTMASTERS CLUB OF BRUSSELS!
Berlaymont Toastmasters is a bilingual club that is ope 
n to anyone over 18 years of age with a reasonable oral command of English and French. Potential club members would reflect the different levels of competency of the English and French speaking community and would reflect a strong multi-cultural spirit. It will be beneficial for anyone who wants to communicate with greater effect and who would like to develop leadership, social and network skills.
Today, Toastmasters International is a non-profit organization which gives its members the opportunity to develop and improve their public speaking abilities through local club meetings, training seminars and speech contests. Toastmasters International includes more than 199,000 men and women in more than 9,300 clubs in more than 70 countries.
Its goal is to help its members to communicate and develop their leadership skills more effectively to better serve their employers, families and friends. Meetings are run according to an agenda or program where different members are assigned different roles at each meeting. This helps each Toastmaster to develop various types of speaking and leadership skills.
A typical Toastmaster Club has approximately 20-30 members and meetings are held in a friendly, supportive environment. Members will practice short impromptu or longer prepared speeches, to develop their poise and confidence in presenting themselves before an audience. Speakers are given an evaluation, i.e. constructive feedback by other individual club members. That helps the speaker to improve and is an important learning experience for the evaluator as well.
