Spirited Speech Masters is a local chapter of Toastmasters International that focuses on building confidence and presentation skills in public speaking. During each meeting, members deliver formal speeches, and all are welcome to participate in impromptu speeches. Fellow members offer encouragement and sound feedback to implement in the next presentation. This approach complements MD Anderson’s Leadership Training by providing the opportunity to practice speaking and presentation skills as well as offering effective evaluation and feedback.
