| Spread your Wings! I am proud that YOU have chosen me to lead you as your District Governor. It is not just about me. It is about US achieving things together. Our District is poised to be the best in the world in 2011-12 and TOGETHER WE shall make it happen! I feel humbled to walk the path walked by our previous District Governors. In my Toastmasters journey, I have learned that these are the giants who paved the way for the District to be where it is today. I have learned that the collective knowledge of these wonderful leaders will continue to sustain and grow our District 58. My most valuable teachers have been YOU, District 58 Toastmasters! I am honored to have interacted with most of you in the District at one time or another. I would love to have you continue to interact freely with me on matters of District 58. My vision, as the District 58 Governor, is to empower each one of you to become a future District leader by expanding your knowledge base through training, and leadership clubs. Knowledge is power. My vision is to have every club in the care of good leaders. My vision is to have every Area and Division Governor and every Club officer fulfilling his/her mission. My vision is to make sure that the upstate, midlands and the low country Toastmasters mingle, remain harmonious and develop to their full potential. My vision is to tap into the unexpanded territories in Greenville, Spartanburg, neighboring cities as well as coastal towns and make Toastmasters a household name throughout South Carolina. My vision is to embrace diversity and to be passionate about Toastmasters. My mantra will be: Have you hugged a club today? Come, let us grow together. |
