“Our sustained membership growth is truly remarkable and is the result of people recognizing how Toastmasters can help them improve their professional and personal lives,” says Lark Doley, Toastmasters’ 2018-2019 International President.
Highlights of Toastmasters’ annual growth include:
- Nearly 800 new corporate Toastmasters clubs chartered
- More than 133,000 educational achievement awards earned by members
- More than 80,000 Pathways awards earned by members
- For the first time, the organization has more members outside of the United States than inside of it
“25 years of consecutive growth is a terrific accomplishment and is a testament to our education program, the work of our volunteers, staff and our ability to adapt to advances in technology,” says Toastmasters Chief Executive Officer Daniel Rex. “In the years ahead, we will continue to focus our efforts on creating new communication and leadership tools that will benefit our members inside and outside of the workplace.”
