A Reflective Perspective on Toastmasters Renewals
Renewals have become a time of reflection for me to set new goals. Granted, goals are perhaps the most abused word in the modern world, but to me, goals have a different meaning. Your goal is a compass – the systems and processes help you to achieve your goals.
Your Fall Fusion
What You Can Expect This Year: This year’s Fall Fusion is once again virtual and creates broader access to District 101 members. It is free to all who register, and we had over 200 participants last year. Our featured contests will be Humorous and Table Topics. In addition, special sessions will include The Solution Room, where you can learn and contribute with other members in facilitator-led, topic-specific rooms.
