"My public speaking experience is minimal; however, I am currently working on improving my skills. I attend toastmaster events and volunteer to lead monthly meetings within my organization."

The interviewer wants to know your public speaking skill level. As a board chairman, you know that speaking in front of people will be a regular part of your duties. Feel free to bring a previously recorded video or presentation of you speaking in front of a large group if you have one. Otherwise, be prepared with examples that include the number of people you have spoken to, the range of topics, and the outcome.
You can also make your answer clear by rating yourself from 1 - 10 on your public speaking skills. If you have any formal training in public speaking, be sure to mention that as well.

"I've spoken in front of large groups of people within my previous organization and my community. While I wouldn't say that I'm an expert, I certainly do not have stage fright when it is time to present. I would enjoy gaining more exposure to public speaking and delivering presentations."
