2025-08-12 18:30 - 19:30 (Europe/Zurich) | Online Event
This could be a dream… or a nightmare: your VPPR has worked diligently,and your club is being graced with 1, 2 or 5 guests at every meeting. Yikes!
How can you transform those enthusiastic listeners into dedicated, active, long-time members of your club?!
Lisa Marie Gelhaus is still searching for the answers. That’s why when you participate in her workshop this Tuesday, bring your thinking cap, your hopes and dreams, and stories of successes and failures! EVERYONE will be involved in creating the “VIP-Guest-to-Servant-Member Manual”.
She suggests you signing into the zoomcall on a PC or Mac, if you can. We will be collaborating on the zoom whiteboard and using shared google docs – best if you’re ready to manage multiple windows.
With your help we will come up with actionable ideas and solutions that you can take back to your club!
Special Guest – Lisa Marie Gelhaus – Award winning Speaker, Trainer and Mentor.

How many members does your club currently have? Why did they join? What are their goals? How do you promote your club? How many guests attend your meetings? How many guests become members? How long do they stay? During this session, we will discuss how membership retention and growth equal Membership Gold!

100 years anniversary!
2024-07-31 08:00 - 17:00 (Europe/Zurich)
When Ralph C. Smedley formed the first official Toastmasters club in 1924, he sought to create a collaborative learning environment where young men could learn the art of public speaking. A century later, nearly 8 million members (of all genders) in 148 countries/territories around the world have worked on bettering themselves thanks to Smedley’s vision of a club environment where members prepare and deliver speeches, respond to impromptu questions, and give and receive constructive feedback.
