Toastmasters Podcast #024: Stepping Out of Your Comfort Zone with Linda E. Allen

The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin

The Toastmasters Podcast is like a radio talk show featuring interviews with Toastmasters usually featured in the Toastmaster magazine. The purpose of the podcast is to amplify the magazine - to dig deeper or to put a voice to a face or written wordBut unlike a radio show, a podcast is on the Internet, and available, for free, to anyone in the world with an Internet connection, and a connected device capable of playing audio. 260+ episodes are at ToastmastersPodcast.comThe Toastmasters Podcast is co-produced by Toastmasters International and Archieboy Holdings, LLC, for our global audience of Toastmasters and those interested in public speaking and leadership.

[19:53] As a new or experienced speaker enhancing your presentation skills requires you to step out of your comfort zone. While this move is never easy, Linda Allen, the author of "Don't Get Comfortable," from the February 2010 issue of the Toastmaster, offers tips to make it a smooth transition.

Please Note: The connection for this interview was very poor, and heavy editing had to be done.  This makes it sound as if we are talking over each other and being rude to our guest! We apologize for this, but felt the content was still worth publishing regardless of the poor quality of the sound and how bad it makes us look as interviewers.
