Do you want to be an Officer?

Your responsibilities are your opportunities!
I really like this statement. Personally me Toastmasters helped a lot. I grew as a speaker. My leadership skills are strong. At least I have a confidence to say it ;) And I found many friends in Toastmasters Community. I truly believe that Toatmasters changes people. This is a perfect place to share your ideas and find support. Plus it's very entertaining. We used to call EBA Toastmasters a Business oriented Club. Now I'd rather call it a Club for Business people. Because we try to have a right Work/Life balance :) We get together not only to discuss business topics, but also to have fun! That's why organize wonderful events, where everyone has a perfect opportunity to open his talents.

Let's recollect some of the events:

Acting

Poetry night 

Birthday parties

Romantic meeting 

Speech Contests

Star meeting

Medicine meeting

Debates 

... 

I believe that new elected team of Officers will continue to create such amazing events. Dear members of EBA Toastmasters Club, embrace the chance to be an Officer and participate in the Election. The Elections will be held very soon, within 30 days!

  
And now a piece of serious but nevertheless very useful information:
Serving as a district or club officer is a great responsibility and an exciting opportunity.  
Your term of office will be filled with chances for you to:
Obtain fresh perspectives
Build teamwork skills
Help clubs and members develop goals for improvement
Serve as a facilitator to individual and club success
Instill members and clubs with enthusiasm, fidelity and a sense of responsibility for themselves and others
Learn to develop your capacity to translate values and strategies into productive actions.
The tools and resources below will help you create strategies for success, answer burning questions and fulfill your officer duties – whether you’re an experienced officer or a novice:

Dues

Dear ladies and gentlemen!

I kindly remind you about paying the dues. It’s only 6$ per month! So you are about to pay 36$ per half of a year membership. For those of you who want to become a member, you should pay plus 20$ for educational material and other issues due to enrolling in the club (20$ are paid only once).

Dear ex-members, remember that it’s much easier to prolong your membership now. In case you are late to pay the dues you have a risk of a necessity to enroll in the club again (some renewals require the same 20$ for enrolling).  
All the members have the right to give speeches, take roles during the meetings. Perfect bonus for members is receiving  monthly magazines from Toastmasters International.

If you need more information about paying the dues issue, please contact our Treasurer, Olga Pustyntseva +38 067 507 57 25, olya_li@yahoo.com
