The International Private Investigators Union (IPIU) has been asked to sponsor worldwide local clubs for members to meet weekly under the Toastmasters International Club Organization template, which will prepare members to obtain cases and clients locally, as well as foster national and international presence.

Toastmaster Graduates and Dale Carnegie Graduates will be invited to apply for special participation at IPIU's International Convention in Hollywood, California (to be announced at a later time).

If you have no experience at this point, then by convention time you may very well have it!

Have you ever participated in:

• Toastmasters Clubs
• Gavel Clubs
• Dale Carnegie Courses

If so, please POST a REPLY to this topic so that we may better understand the needs and skills of our members.

I've never been in either organization, but I am a bit of an extrovert. If you think I can help in some way, just let me know.
These local meetings sound interesting.

Oh, I am waiting for my badge, too. And, I expect it any day now, too. I am also hoping for another case to come my way. Now, that I can take them, they are scarce! I had a couple offers when I was not able to take them.

[Susan Miller]

I received your message in regards to Toastmasters and Dale Carnegie graduates. I am proud to say that I am a Toastmaster graduate. It only took $3 in nickels to get over saying UMMMM.

I really enjoyed Toastmasters Club and I can say that it really helped me get rid of the fear of public speaking, (and no I don't imagine everyone sitting in their underwear while I am speaking).

If there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

[Janice Foster]

Well I am neither, but with this new career I am learning alot and am available for any help I could offer for this. I am ready for cases and just waiting for response(s) back. So any and all I can do is yours for the asking.

[Jorge Lange]

I received your message and I am neither, but I am learning everyday and I have taken Dale Carnegie Course in my past when I was working as salesperson.

[Mrs. Diana Sanzone]

I am a Dale Carnegie Graduate of 1982. I have no experience as a PI but would like to become one part time.

[Ms. Lee Jones--]

I've never had any of these courses, but I would like to enroll in the course. Let me Know what I have to do.

[William E Hoelscher -]

My Fellow Investigators

I agree with everyone that this is indeed exciting news. I feel somewhat ignorant though in having extensive experience but never attended either of these. In fact I don't know much about either.

Could someone who has knowledge of these please elaborate on either or both? Thanks in advance for your assistance.

[Brian Richie -]

Unfortunately, I have not taken either course. However, I do have my badge and wallet, done quite a few mystery shops, and Anti-Piracy jobs. These meetings sound very beneficial to my continued growth in experience and knowledge.

[Vickie Walker]

I haven't had any of these courses but im willing to learn all i can to be come a full time investigator.

[Thomas R. Tonneson]

It just so happens, I am a 1987 graduate of the Dale Carnegie Course in Public Speaking and Human Relations.

[Carmen Acai]

Dear Mary, thank you for your e-mail. Well, I am neither of two, but the country I am coming from it is a former communist country. In such an environment if you do not know to manage things, you are dead meat for vultures. You do not need courses, but to keep thinking all the time (i.e.: who's the next to hit you and where, if possible). It is a hell of a chess, which also teaches you to talk to everybody accordingly. It is all about learning to survive, and that's a tough story. I would love to participate being always ready to learn things and exchange opinions. If I could be of any help for my area, please let me know. I could even have ideas that might help.

[Julia Baxley Falcone]

I am not a graduate of either enterprise but I am familiar with both. I have a friend in Toastmasters and I am planning to attend a similar event this week. I think this is a great idea for IPIU.

[Lisa Barbieri]

I have read Dale Carnegie, never participated in an actual class. It was incorporated as part of my education at an upscale salon i worked at in New York ( Concept Elite) It is a necessary componant to be able to show confidence and eloquence when speaking to your clients.
Besides mastering the " Art " of communication, i have also done some speaking, narrating, poetry reading, acting, and preforming in a rock band.
Still, even when i'm doing hair, i'm still putting on a " show "!,,,it's mostly comedy though!!!!! Laughter IS the best medicine.

There will be other topics of discussion on what Toastmasters is, and how any student of the Dale Carnegie course can benefit from an IPIU sponsored Private Investigators Toastmaster Club in your area. In fact, both Toastmasters and Dale Carnegie got their start in the early 1930's while the country (and the world) was suffering from an economic depression. But don't get me started in this topic.

This topic is designed to see which "forum members" have had any previous experience with leadership and speaking skills. For those who post here that you have no experience, please continue posting! The more interest the better.

For those who have some experience, I suspect IPIU will contact you directly to aide in helping the provisional local club in any manner you can, and to share your experience with newcomers.

In all, IPIU is proposing to use the Toastmaster Club mechanism to accomplish a tremendous local benefit for private investigators, and to prepare them for the International Convention in 2004.

All the best,

[Michael C Evans]

[Barbara S. Barnes -]

I have heard of both "Toastmaster" and "Dale Carnegie" and think it is a good idea. I moved from Alabama to Tennessee and I don't know anyone here so I think by forming this club, it will give all the ipiu family members here in the local area a chance to get together and learn. If there is anything I can do to help please let me know. I have not received my training manual yet, but hope to have it any day now.

I am looking forward to meeting all of my tennessee family.

[Aloysio Botello Jr.]

[Peter R Loncar]

I am a Dale Carnegie graduate of the Public Speaking and Human Relations of 1977. I used to work for Mellon Bank in Pittsburgh and my branch manager strongly recommended that I attend the classes. I was 24 years old. The course really benefited me throughout my life, as I did gain much more confidence in dealing with the public and in my own personal life.

[Derek E Moore]

I am a Toastmaster!!!!!!

Hi everyone!
I would like to know if this program is still active and if so, is there a program in my local area: Chicago, IL.
Thanks in advance

[Elvis Acosta]

If you're interested in each of these training systems, do a search on the Internet and you will find the needed information you're seeking regarding their training courses.

In fact, Toastmasters' website has a page that will direct you to a non-IPIU club in your area.

[Shon Byrd -]

I'm neither ,but am looking forward to learning more about "Toastmaster". How can I learn more sounds like a great learning tool.

[Oleg Saley]

Hi every one.

[Tina Hoover -]

I was very involved with Toastmasters a few years ago. I competed in the Table Topics and Evaluations contests and won several awards. I was club president and Area Governor and I helped form a club in a medium security men's prison which was well attended! There hasn't been a club that fit my schedule lately or I would be involved now. It is a great self development and very fun organization to be a member of.

[Gaetano Di Primo]

Unfortunately I am not a Toastmaster or Dale Carnegie Graduate.
I am new to the industry so I am trying to learn as much as possible.

[Kevin M Erick]

I've heard of toast masters but never had the opportunity to get involved. I f it helps I would love to get involved.
