I am excited to be working with Tim J. Speer and Peter Ratko for the 2025–2026 Toastmasters program year, which runs from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026. Our District has around 140 clubs across Germany and Scandinavia with approximately 3,000 members.
Starting 1 July, Tim will serve as District Director, Peter as Program Quality Director and I will take on the role of Club Growth Director. Together we form the District Trio and are responsible for leading the District, supporting our clubs in achieving excellence and starting new clubs.
Toastmasters is a volunteer organisation where members develop their communication, public speaking and leadership skills in a positive and supportive environment. Through Toastmasters, I have also become more confident, found an international community that embraces learning by doing and met lifelong friends.
