Committee Speaks

Keshav Somasekhar  
President-Keshav Somasekhar
Having great thoughts or ideas is not of much use if they can't be expressed or communicated in an effective way. At Toastmasters, I have a platform to express my thoughts in a clear and concise manner and get varied feedback on how to get better. While effective communication helps in expressing an idea, it's leadership that determines how well it is executed. At Toastmasters, I found the perfect hands on experience to develop and hone leadership skills. At Toastmasters, you are sure to get as good as you give!!At Daffodils Toastmasters, I have always found a tremendous source of inspiration and support to get better in communicating and leading. Famed for its healthy mix of youthful exuberance and experienced heads, I have had a rewarding journey of becoming a better speaker and leader at this club, filled with fun, frolic and felicity...

I think Toastmasters can make a difference to anyone who is willing to grow. It provides a platform for everyone, from the meekest to the most confident, to express themselves, lead by example and break their own boundaries. Daffodils Toastmasters Club is one place that you can truly feel at home. There is guidance and inspiration, there is warmth and laughter, there is support and encouragement. And most importantly, there is dedication and a willingness to learn and to help others learn.

Toastmasters gives you great opportunities. It provides you with a chance to inspire and impact positive changes in people's lives and your own. Being a constant thinker and a person with several ideas on improving the system, i find that toastmasters is a perfect match for me. Daffodils is an amazing platform for youngsters. But then again, every week i see there are several 'veterans' who enjoy the session and at the same time build a great rapport with even the youngsters. So i should rephrase my first line to Amazing club for anyone who's young at heart.

Toastmasters is the place to be if you really want to experience magic. Every meeting is filled with wonderful thoughts , unbelievable speeches and awe-inspiring people. A place for growth, learning, camaraderie all ably supported by the backbone of love. Do you love to speak? Do you love to lead? Do you want to learn? Do you want to grow? You do need Toastmasters!! Daffodils is a place that strikes a fine balance between talented youngsters and seasoned toastmasters which has been the main reason for the success and growth of the club. The best part of the club is the people. The learning's at the club from the time I have joined has been invaluable and something that I am sure no book would teach me. To connect and feel connected, Daffodils Toastmasters welcomes you.

Toastmasters gives us an opportunity to learn in a conducive environment where we help each other become better communicators and leaders. Toastmasters is an ideal platform to meet and network with people while reaping the benefits of public speaking and leadership. Daffodils has been my home to me for the last 2.5 years. The camaraderie we share in Daffodils is what brings the whole club together. The friends I have made at Daffodils continually reinforce my belief of Daffodils being a family. The warmth is infectious and the talent is extraordinary. I couldn't have asked for a better Toastmasters club to be a part of!
