You can become a club officer, and you can present Success and Leadership programs. These give you experience in conducting longer seminars and workshops. Many club officers gain their first experience with leadership of their lives. But the officers and clubs are not left to sink or swim. If a club is in trouble, due to dwindling membership or some other problem, they can ask the Area Governor, Division, or District for help.
More experienced folks help the novices.
Personal contacts between those who are prepared to lead and those who need help in leadership are essential. Toastmasters officers are concerned with membership recruiting and retention, public relations, and program planning. Our club is a laboratory, both for speaking and leadership skills. We discover techniques that work, and what doesn't work, in an atmosphere of fellowship and support. Then we share them with others.
