Susan M. Gardner, DTM
Candidate for International Director from Region 3
Why do I believe in Toastmasters?

Leadership is not always easy but extremely rewarding. All leaders come across challenges, obstacles and learning opportunities, but it is how we react to, respond to, learn from and move forward from those obstacles that help shape what type of leader we become. Toastmasters embraces continual learning by providing personal growth opportunities and it is how we all benefit from those opportunities that enable us to succeed on our journey.

Successful club members are the heart of this highly successful organization and I am passionate about true servant leadership to our club members. Serving our club members, keeping the four core values of Toastmasters at the forefront at all times, will ensure that our club members are successful.

What are those core values?
    Respect for the Individual
    Integrity
    Service to the Member
    Dedication to Excellence

Toastmasters International Board of Director members must serve club members with the Core Values as their primary focus at all times.  Through strategic planning the Toastmasters International Board of Director members focus this organization on providing tools for our clubs and club members as well as the entire organization to be successful.  It is with these core values that I have dedicated myself to implementing throughout my District Leadership both in my home District and other Districts in Region 3.

Thinking outside the box is what helps this organization succeed and it is your ideas and thoughts that I want to carry to the board.  How would you like to have things work?  What tools do you need to succeed?  How can the Board of Directors serve you?  I want to be your voice on the Toastmasters International Board of Directors and I humbly ask for your support.
