Hello fellow TMs!
I am posting to share that I observed and evaluated Joyce Laker this week in her #3 Speech: Public International Law & Diplomacy: Case Study of Darfur.
Joyce presented a well-organized speech on the complexity of this conflict: including the roles of the various political and diplomatic bodies. It was a very professional and informative speech. I truly wish it had been recorded because I learned so much and was very inspired by her presentation. We can expect to see many more powerful speeches from Joyce as she shares her passion about humanitarian issues in Africa with us.
And on another exciting note, I have just received an update from past NPS TM member and Monterey Institute graduate, Fumie Nakamura. She came to the us as a shy pastry chef from Japan. She found her passion at the Monterey Institute, but she found her voice at the NPS Toastmasters Club. She has gone on to work for the United Nations, and just recently completed an assignment in Darfur. Here is a link to an article that was published about her work in Sudan in the newsletter of the United Nations Development Programme. She is now back in New York at the United Nations Headquarters and she tells me she will join the UN TM club there!
