Mentoring is More than Coaching

What do David Brooks, Mark Brown, and Darren LaCroix have in common? Each won Toastmasters International's highest public speaking honor-the World Championship of Public Speaking. What else do these world champions have in common? They all owe their success to the mentors who coached them.

David Brooks, the 1990 World Champion, Mark Brown, the 1995 World Champion, and Darren LaCroix, the 2001 World Champion instinctively knew that to be a good public speaker they needed the help of someone who had already developed the effective communication skills needed to win the world championship.

In this hour-long CD presentation you'll hear the world champions' stories of the mentors who helped them hone their oral presentation skills and guided them to being inspirational speakers. And you'll discover the mentoring role these champions played in the each other's lives!

Why a Mentor Makes a Difference

• When a mentor-coach, someone whose judgment you respect, says "You can do this!" it strengthens your resolve.
• A good mentor-coach offers guidance, another viewpoint that helps you reach your goals.
• A mentor helps you believe in yourself.

Helping another learn is one of the greatest gifts one can give. Whether you are seeking a mentor as a counselor, a guide, or a public speaking coach, David Brooks, Mark Brown, and Darren LaCroix--World Champions of Public Speaking, and successful professional speakers--are proof that mentors made the difference.
