| Welcome to District 59 |
Dear Toastmasters of District 59,
Did you know in which special district you are a Toastmasters member?
At the start of the Toastmaster term the district includes 18 countries in continental Europe, 152 active clubs, and I don´t dare to estimate the cultural diversity. Also we speak a variety of languages: Dutch, English, French, German, Polish, Portuguese, Swedish. More languages are planned.
Don´t you think this remarkable? And YOU are a part of this!
With all the variety (or diversity): What do we have in common?
Personal growth! We all meet to grow confidence – no matter which culture, language or country. You as a member are in the focus of Toastmasters. District 59 supports you to learn and grow.
In all clubs I see members striving to get better and helping each other to achieve their goals.
What is your personal goal? Do you want to be a great speaker, professional trainer, or rather a leader? Or simply have fun speaking up?
Whatever you personally want in order to achieve it – you set your goals and then define steps to get there. For over 85 years Toastmasters provides a program for success. As district leaders we work with your clubs so you can accomplish your goals!
As our International President Gary Schmidt puts it: Toastmasters: Confidence. Leadership. Service.
Another area to focus on is: we still have 4 countries and quite a bunch of cities allover Europe where there is no Toastmsters club at all – yet. What about showing them the key to success in personal growth? Spread the word – help them building a club.
Let´s bring Toastmasters to even more members, more individuals to benefit from our program.
Let´s master the – sometimes – challenges together and have a lot of fun in our district:
