exam...John<br />Initially, let me compliment you on the <br />example you set as a Boca Raton <br />Toastmaster. Thank you.<br />It is all about attitude ! It is an attitude<br />that should pervade the club, but, doesn’t.<br />If it did, you wouldn’t have had to write <br />today’s blog entry. It goes beyond a team<br />effort attitude…..it gets to a basic respect for<br />another human being…..& especially a fellow<br />club member who is trying to grow.<br />There are two basic reasons for last night’s <br />breakdown. One is within the ability of the <br />club to control, the other is something that<br />should have been learned and instilled from <br />childhood.<br /><br />First, the club’s process has sufficient checks<br />and balances to preclude any possibility that<br />a person with a meeting role could “fall through<br />the cracks”. It just has to be followed and each must do his/her job. <br />I have owned &/or run too many business operations to know that when <br />someone has an appointment or a deadline where<br />others are affected by the outcome….. that they <br />just don’t show up. I have never had that happen !<br />We can implement club procedures that will <br />preclude any future holes in any of the meeting roles, including, speaker.<br /><br />The second has to do with what I said above…..<br />It is respect for one another as human beings.<br />It is respect for an organization that is there to help us all….. <br />Personally….. I have significant issues with this deficiency in addition to the fact that it will destroy the club!<br /><br />Let’s work on the club’s process….!Tom Newberynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7475406290484031539.post-45964652991996689942010-02-10T15:06:41.989-08:002010-02-10T15:06:41.989-08:00Thanks John.
