And preparing successors for Officers in Club.<br /><br />Most important? "Say Hi to a guest!" And with a big smile an open body language. That is how we have now 9 new members. Let them feel really welcome.<br /><br />As to "prepare", after having done all to ACG speeches, last time, for a renewed CC I did not prepare well, and I felt the difference!

(Although I've done that for several positions, others may not have.)<br /><br />2) Present a workshop at a conference. I submitted a proposal a couple of years ago, and was chosen as an alternate (which is a lot of preparation to put into something that isn't certain). I'm deciding now whether I want to try that again or go for a keynote at a conference - which is my ultimate goal.<br /><br />3) Help at a conference - whether it is being part of the conference committee or volunteering for that weekend. I have a blast working on the registration desk. What better way to meet almost everyone! I'm looking forward to when I have the time to be on the planning committee.<br /><br />Thanks for making me think about this seriously, Rich.DBatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15804688621324509438noreply@blogger.com
