As I step into the role of Club Growth Director, I realize not only the importance of having a vision but also being able to share that vision with others. Entering this new era of interacting with people near and far means that we’ll need to leverage technology the best we can while keeping in mind if it’s also best for the club(s) using it. Here are my goals for this upcoming year.
- Solidify – Stabilize the existing clubs by strengthening their numbers well above the minimum.
- Energize – Inspire folks to step into leadership opportunities within and outside of Toastmasters
- Engage – Take time to listen and document the pain points of clubs to find custom solutions for each club.
These three goals keep my vision of re-growing the district back to its previous glory and beyond. I know that I cannot tackle this huge task alone. One of the many things that I’ve learned in Toastmasters is to know your audience and to see how you can help them. A by-product of helping them is them being willing to help me to where we all accomplish our goals!
