With 7 officers per club, that is over 980 club officers!
These club officers are key to the success of our organization since clubs would not last very long without the people who step up to be officers.
We should not lose sight of why Toastmasters exists (in addition to having Fun)... to develop our members ... and enthusiastic, trained club officers are critical to this mission.
Ode to those who volunteer to be Toastmasters club officers ...
by Dave Wheeler
They arrange the meeting room ....
... so everything runs smoothly.
They greet us at the door with a smile ...
... and set the mood for the club.
They lead by example ...
... by focusing on their communication and leadership goals.
They find time to attend officer training ...
... so they can better support their club.
They serve their members ...
... and help each person grow and develop.
They communicate to their community ...
... so that the value of Toastmasters is not kept a secret.
They collect dues and handle the paperwork ...
... that keeps the club going.
They update the club website ...
... as a resource to existing and potential members.
They measure the progress of each member ...
... because they know that commitment + measurement = results.
They come up with new ideas for the club to try...
... and reach out to members for their ideas.
They are Toastmasters club officers and ...
... they make Toastmasters FUN !
