Toastmasters Leadership Institute

The winter session of Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI) was held on Saturday, January 9, 1999. Once again Toastmaster Club officers and others gathered at Chandler-Gilbert Community College to receive training for club offices and to develop leadership skills. The morning was spent in a General Session to kick off the day, and was followed by two sessions focused on specific office duties. After a lunch of mini-heroes, salad and exquisite brownies, the two afternoon sessions focused on particular leadership skills such as: goal setting, problem solving, interpersonal communication, to name a few.

The Institute was attended by 280 Toastmasters from around Arizona. A new club from Harrah’s that was not yet officially chartered sent 5 of their officers. The day was lively, fast paced, informative and fun. Everyone seemed to leave feeling that it was a Saturday well-spent.

One club president from Tucson said: "I was afraid I would travel all that way and waste a Saturday. I was pleased that it was fast paced and intense--not a moment was lost." Another officer said that she had almost not come because of car trouble, and was very glad she had been able to make it.

The TLI Committee, a group of committed Toastmasters, is already at work planning the next Summer Session scheduled for June 19, 1999.

District 3 has implemented the Toastmasters Leadership Institute as the primary educational source of leadership training for all Club members within the District. In addition to training for Club Officers, the Institute offers exciting training programs that provide a full array of workshops aimed at improving individual and team perfromance in a variety of personal and professional situations. Since the Toastmasters Leadership Institute has to be financially self-supporting, a small fee to cover expenses is charged to all participants.
