The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin
The Toastmasters Podcast is like a radio talk show featuring interviews with Toastmasters usually featured in the Toastmaster magazine. The purpose of the podcast is to amplify the magazine - to dig deeper or to put a voice to a face or written wordBut unlike a radio show, a podcast is on the Internet, and available, for free, to anyone in the world with an Internet connection, and a connected device capable of playing audio. 250+ episodes are at ToastmastersPodcast.comThe Toastmasters Podcast is co-produced by Toastmasters International and Archieboy Holdings, LLC, for our global audience of Toastmasters and those interested in public speaking and leadership.

[29:59] When we think of great leaders as being effective communicators what often comes to mind is how they deliver their message from the platform. Style, clarity, passion, inspiration - what comes from their mouth,  but less often gets absorbed and processed through their ears.  In our episode today, Joel Schwartzberg enlightens us with valuable tips and great stories on how we as leaders can be more effective listeners.
