    Mission of

    ToastmastersTo provide a mutually

    supportive and positive

    learning environment

    in which every individual

    member has the

    opportunity

    to develop oral

    communication

    and leadership skills,

    which in turn foster

    self-confidenceand personal growth

    AUGUST 2010Toastmasters is a platform where you can learn not only about the art of speak-

    ing well but also about leadership. This is a place where you can take initiatives,

    work in diverse teams and learn new skills, which you never thought you had. Working as the VP PublicRelations for JPKU TMs Club has been one such experience for me.

    In this issue the President Malkiat Bindra talks about his vision for the club, DTM Deepak Menon

    shares reminiscences from the 79th Toastmasters International Convention along with eye catching pho-

    tographs. Look for the new section Meeting Themes of the Month. One of our recent ToastmastersSumit Dora features in an interview for Know Thy Toastmaster. Watch out for the The Hyde Park

    section, followed by the winners of the month and the announcement for Humorous Speech and Evalua-tion Contest.

    Hope you enjoy reading!

    August 3 PRESIDENT SPEAKSWithout much cogitation, two months have passed since the new EC

    took charge, and these two months have been the best months of my lifeas a Toastmaster. The EC has been working tirelessly and there have

    hardly been any hiccups during this term. I hope it continues this way

    The V.P. Education has the Mentor Protg system in place which

    will ensure that every member develops the qualities they always

    wanted.

    Also, I am very happy to announce that the much awaited Humorous

    Speech contest and Evaluation contest will be held on the 11th of Sep-

    tember. So, start gearing yourself; the time to prove your mettle is here.

    Show others why they should consider you as one of the best. With men-tors like Deepak Menon, Vinay Jain and Dr. Ritu Arora, our club is des-

    tined to excel. With members of our Club constantly shinning in thepast, this time it may be you!

    So embrace yourself for greatness, greater heights because this is yourtime to show your Love for your Club!

    In the end, I hope we have a Great Month Ahead.!

    Thank you.

    Malkiat Bindra

    President

    THE HYDE PARK TIPS FOR TABLE TOPICS10TheHydeParkinLondonisfamousforitsSpeakersCorner,whichallowsanyoneandeveryonetospeakonatopicforaslongastheycanunlessthepolicefindsitoffensive,andtheHydeParkpolicehashadahistoryofbeingoffendedveryveryrarelyevenonsensitiveissues.Asasalutationtothefreedomofexpression,webringHydeParkfromLondontoournewsletter,andinviteeveryonetopublishtheircommentsonacertaintopic,whichforthismonthis:AccesshowourtoastmastersaspiretobeeffectiveTTSpeakersandMasters

    "Learning from Perspective"

    Table topic master is the only person in the table - topics session who knows all the topics before-hand, who has the liberty to think on these topics beforehand and who can select these from different

    resources. Normally the topics are selected based on the theme of the day which is proposed by theToastmaster of the meeting.

    Since Table Topics Master has this privilege, I think he/she should give his/her (topic's authors - if

    selected from some source) perspective on the topics selected after the table topic speakers have

    spoken on the assigned topics. This will give another viewpoint in terms of what those lines meant totopic master when he selected the same or to the author when he originally wrote them and hence

    help toastmasters present in the meeting to learn different views on the same topic.

    I tried the same in one of the meetings themed "IF" this month and selected topics from various po-ems that I have collected and read. The response was quite enthusiastic from speakers and I hope this

    will continue in future also and will become a part of our regular meeting.

    Vikas

    Diversify the reading

    Try to be close to the topic, the ideas will flowIf you need to compare, do it with yourself, you will defi-

    nitely see some progress!!

    - Hedge your opinions - rather than using "must" or"should" use "perhaps", "It would have been better"

    Most of the talking we do on a daily basis is

    impromptu speaking, and so if we can learnhow to assemble knowledge and thoughts on

    any topic at a moments notice we can do the

    same at the Table Topics as well; all we needis confidence and a few pointers such as

    Being Mentally Prepared Taking a few seconds to start

    Starting with an Example Being Animated

    And Finally, Practice

    WhyYou Should Compete in Contests?

    You will have fun!

    The added pressure of a contest forces you to step outside your spea

    comfort zone. By doing so, you will grow, as a speaker as well asevaluator.

    You might win! Whether you win or not, you will learn new techni

    from the other contestants.

    Generally, each level that you advance brings a larger audience.

    Stage time!

    Be there to experience it!
