Toastmasters, 

I am the club "Mentor Master". I wanted to share my "1 minute PSA"  with you
to ensure you are aware of our Mentoring program.  If you have ANY questions
or needs. Please reach out to me!  

Our Club has many newer members...each one being mentored by a seasoned
Toastmaster. I encourage the new members to be in close contact with their
Mentors and ask lots of questions!  While each Mentor has given a commitment
to the Mentee to share their knowledge and Toastmaster experience  ....it is
the Mentee's level of involvement and interest that will dictate the speed
of engagement. We are here to encourage and HELP you, not push you or make
you do something before you are ready. 

We know... When the Student is ready... the Teacher will appear!

If you are highly motivated: demonstrated by volunteering for open roles.
reading the TM manuals and doing the research to ensure best execution of
the role your Mentor will see your enthusiasm.   In this situation I'd
challenge the Mentor to be sure your Mentee learns the protocol and is
engaged with a role at each meeting and is being challenged! * Motivated
Toastmasters seek out opportunities to practice their skills.

If you are interested in personal growth but want to take it at a slower
pace: demonstrated by being at the weekly meetings and fulfilling the roles
as you are noted on the schedule your Mentor will see your level of interest
and walk with you at your own pace to learn the protocol and Toastmaster
program. Your mentor will encourage you to step out of that Comfort Zone and
stretch your wings... the gentle nudge will always be there...but the Mentee
sets the pace. We hope through this process a Spark is ignited and this
member evolves to a more Highly Motivated Toastmaster.  Often as you realize
the growth you are experiencing and as others notice the subtle changes in
you...you will cross this bridge.

Our  VP of Education: Phil Poplawski  will be monitoring your Project
Achievements and encouraging you to set goals and Reach for the next
level...   He will help you stay on track working towards your Personal
Toastmaster Goals.  As you achieve your goals the Club benefits as well. One
of our goals as a Club is to be a Presidents Distinguished Club..  We are
each the beneficiary of the end result, when Toastmasters are engaged and
work the program as it is intended. Presidents Distinguished Club just
happens naturally!

Please see the snapshot below, you will learn more about the Club Goals from
our Club President & VP of Education. 

If we individually set goals in Toastmasters and work the program we will be
a Presidents Distinguished Club



 

Each Member of our Club can be a resource for a newer Toastmaster. tap into
this wealth of knowledge! 

We all love to share our experiences!

Show, Play.Grow!
