Early in 2020 an alliance between Rotary International and Toastmasters International was announced. The arrangement which was years in the making will enable members of both of Toastmasters and Rotary to:
- enhance their skills,
- broaden their networks
- increase their positive impact in communities through a new collaboration.
The ongoing relationship between the two organizations will begin at the grassroots level with local club members learning and working together. Additionally, Toastmasters will create a set of eight structured communication and leadership development courses for Rotary with a phased rollout that will be available in English in 2020, and in more languages in 2021.
District 5040 is very pleased to support this initiative and we look forward to forming a solid working relationship with Toastmasters.
