WORKSHOP DESCRIPTIONS
CHOICE OF ONE 50-MINUTE
SESSION!
1) Group
Evaluations Linda Fritz and Laura Fritz
This mother
daughter Dynamic Duo will give you the experience of Group Evaluations. Have a
speech ready and bring several copies of your evaluation form. This is an
opportunity to not only give a speech but also to receive multiple evaluations,
guided by this Dynamic Duo.
2) Panel Discussion on Writing and Self-Publishing Books Jacki Rose, Cherylle
Garnes, Bo Bennett, and John Chapin. Moderator: Deb Kulkkula
Four
authors will discuss what it takes to get your book written and self-published:
what to do, mistakes to avoid, and what is involved in each step along the way.
They will also be giving you some resources to get you on your way toward
self-publishing.
3)Toastmasters:
A New Generation Dr. Carol Anderson, ATM-B
For the
first time in history, four generations share the workplace and Toastmasters!
Has your club thought about intergenerational communication? Does
your club take generational differences into
consideration when planning meetings or club events? How about marketing
to attract new members in all generations?
In this
session, you will learn the traits and characteristics of the four generations
as well as Intergenerational Communication tips and techniques to improve club meetings and motivate members of all generations
-- skills you apply in Toastmasters and at work!!
4) Starting
and Helping Clubs Bil Lewis DTM, LGM
A key part
of being a member of Toastmasters is helping others succeed. One way you can
do that is by starting new clubs and coaching weak ones. Our district
currently has 30 groups looking to form clubs (note: this meets one of the
requirements for AL-S). This workshop will show you how this is done.
Members with experience in starting clubs are encouraged to attend to discuss
the details of what works and what doesn't. The workshop will cover: a)
publicizing the demo meeting, b) running the demo meeting, c) helping the new
club organize itself, and d) doing the paperwork yes, paperwork is part of
everything.
Coaching a weak club is quite similar, as much of what you're doing is the
same--helping people learn how to run effective meetings and bringing in new
members.
Both tasks require leadership. The people you help will be looking up to you
for direction and this workshop will prepare you to be ready. It isn't always
easy, but it's always worthwhile.
