    District Officer Training (0)

    The District Officer Trainings are for Area Directors, Division Directors and Senior Team members. They are not for club officers, and confer no credit toward the Distinguished Club Program. Attendance counts toward the District Recognition Program for Area Directors, Division Directors and Senior Team.

    Today's sessions will be:

    The role of Area Director is that of visitor, coach and guide to the officers of four to six clubs in a geographical area. For some Area Directors in District 53, this can be five clubs in the same city. For others, it can be widely spread clubs more than two hours apart. In this session, you'll learn what's expected of Area Directors in District 53, and how to create a successful experience for yourself and for the officers of the clubs in your care.

    Effective Division Council Meetings: The Division Director is a "coach of coaches," lending support and guidance to the Area Directors that make up their division. How can you lead effective meetings for this group, and how can you work together to bring clubs to success, together?

    Building Successful Teams: If an Area Director or Division Director did everything they were supposed to by themselves... they'd be exhausted. An Area or Division Director needs a team, and as a Toastmaster you have to know how to build a successful team to achieve your objectives.  How to recruit and mentor people to help you with contests, open houses, coordinated marketing campaigns, membership recruitment, advertising.
