Toastmasters and the Project Management Institute: A Powerful Combination

Written By Mike Goss

To execute a project successfully, each member of the project team must be skilled at communications and project management. 

Better Communication Skills

There is an international organization devoted to helping its members become better communicators and leaders: Toastmasters International. With almost 300,000 members 35,000 chapters across 122 countries, Toastmasters helps people all over the world. I hold the Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM) credential, the highest one offered by Toastmasters.

Better Project Management Skills

The international Project Management Institute offers training and peer activities to help its members manage their projects better. I hold the Project Management Professional (PMP) credential, certifying my project management knowledge and practices.

When They Come Together, Magic Happens

I am privileged to assist members of the Portland chapter of Project Management International as they form a Toastmasters club for PMI-Portland members. It's probably no surprise that we're making a project out of launching the club.

Click Here for details of the new club, as well as a video I shot on Casual Wednesday.

We will make magic together here in the Silicon Forest.
