Meeting template

August meeting

Pat will do "focus on the coach"
Topic was marketing
Sue will contact Bobbie to see if she had somebody in mind on the marketing topic

Future meetings

Maggie had an interesting topic around consensus building
She also had an interest in giving a more indepth presentation on The Work
Sue is the owner of meeting topic planning
Sue will look at the ideas we have listed already and bring appropriate discussions to either the general or planning meetings
John/ Would we want to have a sample ToastMasters meeting? There's some interesting and useful skills which are developed, plus they have good methods for meeting management. This also hooks into developing coaches' marketing skills and approaches. John will develop the idea further.
- Sue/ Another topic in a ToastMasters approach could be connecting with other people. John/ The first TM speech is always an "icebreaker" speech where you talk about yourself. Also we could incorporate their feedback forms, participants give feedback on the speakers.
- This might be a good topic for September

Officer roles

We haven't closed on the roles of each of the officers
Sue is going to finalize the president/VP roles and needs to get an update from Joan
