🚀 ✨ Toastmasters in the Wild: Real Projects, Real Results 🚀
We’re pleased to highlight our club member Julia Rozmus for her active role in the project C4TALENT – Creating a better environment for startups and businesses to attract and retain talent.
This long-term initiative focused on strengthening Rzeszów’s entrepreneurial ecosystem through Local URBACT Group collaboration, international exchanges 🌍, local events 💡, test actions 🚀, and the creation of an Integrated Action Plan.
As part of the project, Julia also delivered a workshop at the “BusinessUP! Green actions” seminar in Urban Lab Rzeszów 🎤. Her session, “The Capital of Confidence – Courage That Pays Off”, addressed how confidence, structured communication, and persuasive messaging influence effective pitching, negotiations, and stakeholder engagement — all essential in business environments.
Projects like C4TALENT show how important cross-functional competencies are:
– communication clarity and confidence 🗣️
– leadership in collaborative settings 🤝
– critical thinking and solution-oriented facilitation 💭
– the ability to present ideas to diverse audiences with precision and impact 🎯
These are exactly the skills Toastmasters helps develop. The transition from club meetings to real-world projects becomes natural when members practice leading discussions, presenting under time pressure, and giving constructive feedback.
Julia — well done on applying these competencies in a professional, tangible way. A strong example of how Toastmasters skills translate into project results. 👏
