Our Community Engagement

We're excited to announce the official chartering of the Gerab Toastmasters Club established in District 127, Division F, Area 23 — a dynamic new initiative dedicated to empowering our team members to communicate with clarity, lead with confidence, and grow together.

With the enthusiastic participation of 26 members, the launch event on 22 May 2025 was a vibrant kick-off filled with energy and hands-on learning. The session was guided by six experienced Toastmasters — Division Director TM Happy Raphael, Area Director TM Ajay Valentine, Distinguished Toastmasters (DTMs) VP Menon and Harish, and club mentors TM Patrick Bejjani and TM Habbie. A special appreciation goes to Shruti Verma, Vice President Education, and TM Vishaka Radhakrishna, Club Secretary, who played key roles in successfully establishing the Gerab Toastmasters Club.

Participants got firsthand experience in key Toastmasters practices — from delivering impromptu Table Topics speeches and practicing active listening to giving and receiving constructive feedback. This immersive experience helped our team explore their unique voice, overcome the fear of public speaking, and gain the confidence to communicate effectively in any setting.

Empowering Growth Through Our Values

Gerab Toastmasters Club is more than a platform for public speaking — it's a space where our core values come to life. By helping us communicate with clarity and purpose, it reinforces our commitment to Think Customer First. Through constructive feedback and support, we Give and Earn Respect. Each meeting encourages members to Take Ownership of their roles, building accountability and leadership. It's a collaborative environment where we Work Together to grow, and it inspires us to Innovate with Simplicity through clear, impactful communication.
