About the Program

Join us virtually at noon ET on September 24 for a virtual panel discussion on the value of membership in the ACHE of Georgia Toastmasters Club.


The ACHE of Georgia Toastmasters Club (Club #28675726) was officially chartered on November 29, 2022. ACHE of Georgia Members J. Larry Tyler, LFACHE, FHFMA, CMPE, and Darra M. Edwards, PharmD, MSOL-HCM, BCCCP, BCPS, ACE, established the club to help healthcare professionals improve their public speaking and leadership skills.

Whether you are an emerging or established healthcare leader, clear, confident communication is essential. Practicing public speaking helps leaders reduce confusion that can lead to mistakes, build trust and psychological safety, and strengthen morale, engagement, and team performance.


Learn how Toastmasters provides a supportive environment to strengthen your voice, enhance your leadership presence, and help you become a more effective healthcare leader.
