Homework for the Area and Division Governors

This is what I sent out to the Area and Division Governors prior to their training on June 28, 2008.

The purpose was for them to 1) find assistants to aid them in their good work this term; 2) find at least one advisor-mentor; and 3) select one or two items (from the list of 50 Habits of Successful People) to work on with their assistants and advisor-mentor(s).

The purpose of this exercise is for everyone to learn from their experience as a Governor this term, just as I am learning from this experience as District Governor.

(Homework for the Area and Division Governors)
Subject: Area and Division Governors - Action Requested

Hi -

Thank you for your willingness to serve the Toastmasters of District ONE!

This is a three-item request that I would like you to address:

The first is to find Assistants, if you have not already done so.

The second is to find at least one Advisor-Mentor, if you have not already done so.

As the District Governor, I have enrolled a team to assist me, and I have a number of Past District Governors and other Toastmasters in District ONE who are advising and mentoring me in my upcoming role.

Finally, find attached an excerpt from the "Fifty Habits of Highly Successful People" (there is a link to the original article in the attachment). As you are already high successful people, I would like you to look at the list and find the one or two items that you may want to work on this term - do this with the help of your assistant(s) and advisor-mentor. In this way you can become more highly successful.

Thanks again!
