I would like to become a Manalo Blahnik shoe salesman. Communication and Leadership Goals What objectives do you hope to accomplish as a member of Chats Toastmasters? I would like to create world peace and end childhood hunger all while sashaying around in a bathing su . . . I am sorry is this the Ms America auditions? Is public speaking a requirement of your job or profession? Only when a CEO pins me up in front of Walmarts crew of buyers and says dance pretty girl. How would you describe your current skill level as a speaker? Oh brother, do we need to go there. Somewhere between a sea anemone and Shrek. Although the sea anemone gets away with saucier language than I. Do you have any specific fears relative to public speaking? NO! I make my knees shake and my voice quiver willfully so the other members feel better about their speaking skills. It is my way of giving back. Why did you choose to join Chats Toastmasters? HELLO!!!! Have you seen how attractive the members are! It is an honor to be a part of this crew. What can Chats Toastmasters do to help you acconplish your goals? A standing ovation after each speech would be wonderful. Also likening me to great orators like Martin Luther King and WInston Churchill might help a smidge. Finally if my fellow members would stop giving speeches on eating healthy foods, I could get back to the m&m and Coca Cola diet that has sustained me for forty years. Tell the group anything else you'd like us to know about you!
Wonderful, finally an opportunity to be myself, I can put this professional veneer aside.
