Latin Leaders - Toastmasters Club #583774

The theme of this meeting was “Show Your Talents”.  The table topics questions were designed to reveal to everyone what your particular talents are and how they are being used.  Daniel Cossack was the Table Topics master asking the questions, and also participated as a table topics speaker.  Michelle Alba-Lim was our esteemed Toastmaster of the evening and did a good job of keeping everyone interested and having fun.  Our two speakers were Delfino and new member, Susie Gonzalez.  

This was Delfino’s 10th speech which now qualifies him as a Competent Communicator.  I don’t know what he said but at the end of the speech all of the members of the club were hugging each other.  On behalf of the entire club I’d like to congratulate Delfino on his meritorious accomplishment.  Delfino joined Latin Leaders just about one year ago and has been very consistent in working through the manual at a pace that seems to be the most productive.  And I think it shows as we watched his progression from his first speech to his 10th.  He is indeed a competent communicator and I sincerely hope  he will now continue working on the more advanced speeches.

Susie Gonzalez is our newest member and gave her first speech, the Ice Breaker.  Now we know where her fear of public speaking comes from and I think we have a good idea of her strengths as a speaker.  Susie is very pragmatic and enthusiastic.  I know she will do very well in Toastmasters.

We have another Ice Breaker speech next week so don’t miss our next meeting.  We have lots of things planned for the club so stay tuned.
