Paradigm Shift From Community to Corporate
While there are many layers to the process of changing our paradigms regarding the Toastmasters program and the possibility of it being an integral part of a corporation’s in-house training programs, today we are going to look at the first layer.
For the next hour we will interactively explore some concepts to consider when approaching corporations, topics that are critical to discuss and conversations to have with them regarding the relationship between the two entities.
Today Pat asks that you suspend all that you already know about the Toastmasters program, how it works in your club, how you have done it before, or are in the process of doing – and travel with a different perspective – that of what the corporate world is looking for and how we can partner with them.
