Club Loyalty Program - with Morag Mathieson, DTM
2026-02-24 18:30 - 19:30
🎯 Workshop(1hour of COT Credit): Invisible Bonds
Is your club growing… or slowly leaking members?
We often focus on recruitment. But here’s the truth:
👉 It’s easier to retain a member than to recruit a new one.
👉 Sustainable growth happens when members stay, engage, and thrive.
On 24 February at 18:30 (Rome Time), join us for a powerful online workshop with Morag Mathieson, DTM, 2023–2024 International President of Toastmasters International.
With 20 years of membership and a leadership journey that helped shape Toastmasters’ growth across Europe, Morag is known for her inspiring belief: “Never close the circle.”
Her mission? Ensuring every member feels seen, valued, and inspired to grow.
💡 In this interactive session, you’ll discover:
🔹 Why members leave — and how to slow the leak
🔹 Practical strategies to boost engagement and retention
🔹 How to build belonging, fun, recognition, and real value
🔹 Why relationships are the true foundation of long-term success
Retention is not accidental — it’s intentional.
Whether you are a Club Officer, Area or Division leader, or a passionate member who cares about sustainability, this workshop will give you actionable tools you can apply immediately.
💬 The session includes a live Q&A, so bring your questions and real club challenges.
If we want thriving clubs, we must protect what we build.
Let’s transform our clubs from places people join…
into communities where they truly belong.
