Toastmasters use Adult Learning? Responses about their experiences as Club Members The Club provides a warm support atmosphere Learning is ongoing and builds on previous activities It is a place where I can experiment and make mistakes I am seen as individual and can go at my own pace I like the diversity of the members and their backgrounds Immediate feedback lets me know how I am doing Learning is fun at the meetings Meetings are structured so that I am always involved The purpose of each learning activity is clearly explained I feel challenged by the various meeting roles TMs continues to meet the needs I had for joining it

Choice (Control) Theory • This!theory!of!motivation!proposed!by!William! Gl Glasser states!that!behavior!is!never!caused!by! t t th t b h i i db a!response!to!an!outside!stimulus!(situation!or! person). • The The!control!theory!states!that!behavior!is!a! control theory states that behavior is a constant!attempt!to!satisfy!one!or!more!of!our! five!basic!needs. 5


Reframe and Inspire with Passion

Relevance for Toastmasters !I believe that Choice Theory y explains p why people join, stay and/or leave Toastmasters and that we should keep this in mind when planning activities at all levels within the organisation.

5


Reframe and Inspire with Passion

Choice (Control) Theory

! These basic needs are thought to be innate (we are born with them). ! We choose all that we do and we are responsible for the choices we make. ! The needs drive our choices and influence how we behave in those choices. 5


Reframe and Inspire with Passion

All Behaviour has a Purpose “It!is!our!best!attempt,!at!the!time,! given!our!current!knowledge!and!skills, to!meet!one!or!more!of!our! basic!human!needs�. Dr.! William!Glasser

Reframe and Inspire with Passion

Conclusion from Choice Theory ! People join Toastmasters to satisfy their innate Psychological needs ! They stay as long as these needs are being met ! They leave if these needs are no longer being satisfied or they yp perceive that the Club is indifferent to their needs (remember the 1st slide)

Reframe and Inspire with Passion

Implications for TMI • We need to constantly work as a District/Division/Area/Club to ensure that member member’s s basic psychological needs continue to be met if we hope to retain them for longer than at present.

5


Reframe and Inspire with Passion

Balanced Meetings We need to plan Club Meetings that are balanced i.e. have elements of all four basic psychological needs incorporated, and in that way the meeting will be need need-satisfying satisfying and all attending will grow and develop.
