Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
DTM Kip started us off on the subject of Leadership. This is what we learned...
* TM Carmine has been dragged into leadership roles, only to find out that he's not a leader but a facilitator and he thinks we're a bovine nation.
* TM BeckyJo is a non-compliant convicted felon since the age of 5.
* Guest Val thinks leadership is overrated. Try to explain a mission to 100 people, get 100 different versions of the mission. People are just refractory!
* TM Tom became a club secretary because of his good legs...He Won Best Table Topics Award.
* I, TM Ana, equate leading from the rear to reacting from the behind.
Then came our prepared speeches...
* TM Tom repeated last week's speech incorporating the evaluation - he limited his tribalism examples to a prominent Indian engineer from upstate NY, an overprotected tribalbiden you may have heard about, and a public school teacher in the 1920s who dared to be Catholic.
* DTM Kip moderated a panel of 3 with Leadership topics. The panel shared how they landed in EarlyBirds and what they have learned from it. Club elections are coming up! Get ready to vote early and vote often.... He Won Best Speaker Award.

As far as evaluations go...
* TM Jose praised TM Tom for having listened to the prior week's evaluation and sticking to the facts with good enunciation.
* TM Tom stated that DTM Kip gave a good cogent non-refractory speech and sheperded Carmine's sheep to a good conclusion. He Won Best Evaluator Award.
The Word of the Day was
REFRACTORY, adj.
1. stubborn or unmanageable
2. resistant to a process or stimulus.
Example: Being refractory in adolescence often leads a person to the School of Hard Knocks, followed by the University of Adversity.
TM Paolo will represent our Club this Friday April 29 in the Humorous Speech Contest. Please register to attend and support him! DTM Kip will send out the registration information subito.
