WHERE LEADERS ARE MADE​
Page Title
How it works​
We meet twice a month. Members improve communication and leadership skills by completing education units, and taking an active part in meeting roles. You will learn how to present, lead, critique, and inspire. Join us and take part!
Meeting Format
Prepared Speeches
Members present speeches they have written and practiced in advance.
​
Table Topics
Practice speaking off the cuff! This impromptu speaking segment is great training for thinking on your feet. Members without a meeting role and guests are invited to participate in this segment.
​
Evaluations
Speakers are assigned an evaluator who listens carefully and presents an oral evaluation. Evaluators discuss what went well, what could be improved, and provide suggestions for refinement.
Education Program
Pathways learning program
Our educational program is flexible and can be tailored to your interests, strengths, and weaknesses. Simple step-through units include multimedia content, that is easy to follow and return to for review. Before and after self-assessments allow you to gauge your success.
​
Giving Speeches
Each unit culminates in a speech. Giving speeches allows you to respond to what was learned. You will receive feedback on your speech, so you can continue to improve.
