The Big Picture…

Bringing the Toastmasters International Strategic Plan to Life

As an officer, I would make sure that every decision we make, every policy we propose, everything we do, is consistent with what we have identified as our pathway to the future. There are six tenets of the Toastmasters International Strategic Plan. The more I read and reread these simple yet powerful intentions, the more excited I become about the future of our great organization. It is important that we endeavor to ensure that every member understands the grand plan for moving our organization forward, and that we each understand our own role in that process.

 

It is very common to assume that only Officers or Directors can influence the direction of Toastmasters. My goal here is to demystify that belief, and show how we all have roles to play to help Toastmasters achieve its strategic goals. As you read this analysis, I encourage you to add your own ideas and insights, and share them with others in your club and district. Imagine our entire membership educated about the strategic direction of our organization, and each of us committed to playing our role in making it happen! Envision Our Possibilities Together! Here are the Strategic Plan objectives:

 
 

The more I read and reread these simple yet powerful intentions, the more excited I become about the future of our great organization.

 
 
 
 
  1. Consistently achieve membership growth.
  2. Increase the recognition of Toastmasters International as expert in the fields of communication and leadership.
  3. Become as well known for leadership development as for communication development.
  4. Provide programs that are adaptable for different generations and cultures, and for emerging technologies.
  5. Achieve global market penetration.
  6. Achieve excellence in the quality and consistency of programs, products, processes and services throughout the organization.
