Distinguished Club Program

With over 75 years of experience, Toastmasters International has found key elements in successful clubs. Distilling these into 10 goals for the fiscal year, they relate to:

education
leadership
membership growth and
administration.

If you who have built organizations, you immediately recognize their importance, and appreciate how leading a Toastmasters club builds transferrable skills to build any organization -- or even your own family!

( check Main Street Maniacs DCP status:)

Those of you who haven't done so - you can gain tons by serving in a voluntary leadership position.

Why?

You can't hire volunteers with money. You can't fire them for poor performance.

You can only do what true leaders do: motivate, guide, encourage, and redirect through evaluation.

Here are the 10 Distinguished Club Program requirements:

Education:

2 CTMs (members completing their first 10 speeches)
2 CTMs (in addition to the above)
1 ATM (a member completing an advanced speaking level)

Leadership:

1 CL, AL, or DTM (Competent Leader, Advanced Leader, or Distinguished Toastmaster)
1 CL, AL, or DTM (in addition to the above)

Membership Growth:

4 more new members: more new blood means more vitality and energy

Training and Administration:

Filing the membership reports on time during each semiannual period
