Mentors give entrepreneurs an edge

NOOSA Toastmasters is about more than public speaking as mentors give entrepreneurs a step in the right direction.
Toastmasters’ member and business strategist Katina Cuba said she had been able to build confidence and learn valuable skills since joining the club in February last year.
“I am a business strategist who helps entrepreneurs to maximise profitability and impact in their businesses. I felt the need to improve my speaking to be able to expand my business and take it to a level where I can serve more people, through workshops, webinars and public speaking,” Ms Cuba said.
“My decision to join the club was almost instant after my first meeting as a guest; I felt extremely welcomed and was impressed with the encouragement and professionalism from all the members.”
Toastmasters vice-president Kate Gardiner said the club also focused on relationship building and leadership skills.
“One of the most effective ways we support new members is by the allocation of a mentor who will help you with your particular goals of joining Toastmasters,” she said.
Guests are welcome to attend Toastmasters meeting which is held every second and fourth Monday at Nooasville State School Library, Beckmans Road, Noosaville, at 6.15pm for a 6.30pm start. If you would like more information, phone Alice on 0402 050 888.
