Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI)

Here in District 50 of Toastmasters International, we kicked of a new officers year with a bang!  I attended the VP Public Relations training and three sessions on Club Sponsor / Mentor / Coach training.  It was great to see old friends and meet new ones.  We have some amazing women in our key District 50 leadership this year.  They are already off to a great start. 

One of the personal high points for me was getting to hear Jack Balko, DTM (a past District Governor many times over) speak.  The topic, Demo Team Training, is near and dear to my heart as it is all about starting new clubs; but more than that it was a true pleasure to hear such a gifted speaker.  I also had the pleasure of meeting our Division Governor Ed Meissner, ACS, ALB. 

I left the conference inspired to not only continue my involvement in the leadership of our local club, but also to reach out and be more active in District 50.  These are a great bunch of people to work with.
