Unleashing hidden powers: The impact of Toastmasters on the Effat librarian’s journey

This presentation explores the transformative influence of being a Toastmaster member on the role of a librarian and the exceptional opportunities it opens at Effat University. By joining Toastmasters, librarians can enhance their communication skills, unlock leadership potential, and cultivate a network of professionals.

This session will highlight the specific ways in which Toastmasters has influenced my work, including enhancing instructional sessions, fostering community engagement, and empowering colleagues. Attendees will gain insights into how they can leverage Toastmasters or similar organizations to advance their own professional development and make a positive impact in their libraries.
