Hello
I would like to particularly Thank YOU, District 101 Toastmasters Member, for making our year successful so far. A special shout out to everyone who has worked towards contributing to the success of their club, either by accomplishing one or more educational goals, or by inviting guests to attend a club meeting.
As we near the end-of-year holiday season, I encourage you to take full advantage of your Toastmasters membership by scheduling your educational progress to achieve your set goals, checking out the Toastmasters Magazine, and inviting friends and family to join you at your next Toastmasters meeting. Once they see what they stand to gain, there is no doubt they will join a club that meets their needs. To recognize your efforts, the District has come up with a few recognition programs:
Would you like to gain better leadership skills? Are you working towards completing your DTM? If yes, I strongly encourage you to consider this growth opportunity β complete a 1-year term as a District Leader. You will find all the necessary information to apply on our District Leader Nominations page.
December is the month when clubs that elect semi-annually bring new leaders to the forefront. If you have never been a club officer before, kick start your leadership journey within Toastmasters by running for an office. If you are an existing officer, consider running for a new officer role, which will provide you with an opportunity to further expand your transferable leadership skills. You will also have an opportunity to meet and network with other Toastmasters during the Club Officer Training sessions, and share best practices to make your club even more vibrant.
Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions, comments or suggestions. As we near the end of the year, be thankful to those who have been instrumental in helping you become a better communicator and a leader. Let us together continue to achieve personal and professional goals, and celebrate our successes, large and small. Here's to a great year ahead!
Happy Holidays. π
