 Hello everyone at Lagoon Toastmasters. This message is to congratulate the new XCOM, especially the club president Ravi. I've been asked to deliver this message to you by your dynamic VP membership Jaya Ravi who wants to take this club to the next level. My name is Kajetan Pareto. I create content for Toastmasters on my YouTube channel Tech for Toastmasters. I've achieved the Distinguished Toastmaster award twice and I've helped my club reach the top 20 clubs in the world few years ago. If I have any suggestions for the new XCOM, these are my top three recommendations. Number one is knowledge transfer and lessons learned. I highly recommend the outgoing XCOM members to sit with the new team, share your knowledge, tell them what worked and most importantly what did not work. This lessons learned transferred to the new team will help them to make sure that they don't make the same mistakes and they take the club to the next level. My second recommendation is mentoring. Mentoring is an integral part of our Toastmaster journey. As senior Toastmasters, make sure that every new member that joins your club is assigned a mentor and both the mentor and the protege work together to achieve common goals. Mentoring is not just about sharing information but creating those relationships so that the mentor truly understands the needs of his protege. Every Toastmaster that joins the Toastmasters club has his own challenges. Challenges at work, challenges at home, how we can navigate through all of this to make sure that Toastmasters truly benefits your protege and my final recommendation is training. Ensure you're well trained to perform your task. Attend the club officers trainings and the TLI conducted by your district. There are additional resources within your district at the area level, at the division level, make use of them. As a club, you are already a successful club. You know about goals. You have completed your year as president distinguished. Everything you need to succeed is already in your hands. Combine that with knowledge transfer, mentoring and training. And I'm sure this club will be the top club at the end of this fiscal year. All the best.
