District
The greater the loyalty of the group toward the group, the greater is the motivation among the members to achieve the goals of the group, and the greater the probability that the group will achieve its goals.
District 26 has used the international brand refresh as the catalyst to raise the bar and expand our training to include all forms of communication. We believe that in going beyond public speaking to promote effective oral communication, leadership skills, and use of social media, we will reach a wider audience and develop a more professional image and performance. We urge all clubs to post a link on their website that will take members directly to the District 26 Dialogue and the D26 website.
If clubs are to thrive, every member must take an active role in promoting Toastmasters. Review the marketing resources above and share your own ideas and success stories with the district.
