Mission

Every Toastmasters club shares the same mission, clearly defined in the following statement:

“We provide a supportive and positive learning experience in which members are empowered to develop communication and leadership skills, resulting in greater self-confidence and personal growth.”

Values

In Toastmasters, all members are guided by a set of essential core values: integrity, respect, service, and excellence. 

These values enable member achievement through club excellence. In fact, through the process of practicing and learning in Toastmasters clubs, we discover that the fourth value—excellence—cannot exist without adherence to the first three. And of those, the very first value is perhaps the most important.

The entire Toastmasters program depends on the integrity of each member; that is why it is our first core value.” Daniel Rex
