-
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- QUESTION: I need professional help with giving public speeches. Where can I
- find this help? The question arose after reading your recent article. On
- that day you gave advice to a person who had a problem with public speaking.
- Well, I need a little more help with my speaking in general.
-
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
- ANSWER: The previous response in my column drew a great deal of interest and
- I have received many letters about the subject. Apparently there is a real
- need for this type of assistance, and the good news is that there are at least
- two organization that are prepared to offer help to all who would improve
- their speaking skills.
- Several letters contained information about Toastmasters International,
- and one kind reader even forwarded a copy of their fine publication.
- Toastmasters provides an environment of support by other individuals with
- similar personal goals and offers a professionally designed developmental
- program. For more information contact their headquarters, P.O. Box 9052,
- Mission Viejo, CA 9260.
- Another organization that may be of assistance is International Training
- in Communication (ITC), P.O. Box 4249, Anaheim CA 92803. Both organizations
- have local chapters across the country. Good Luck.
