Meeting Sept 11 - Memories & Stories
Today we had a great meeting of winging it when not everyone has arrived yet, filling last minutes role, but most importantly some amazing speeches. Jalene shared with us her L1 Research speech in which she shared with us information about Emotional Intelligence (EI or EQ) through EI Guy and her resources. Brian N shared with us a story of who he is through the lens of his ancestorys and his 32 and me test, sharing life adventures, historical artifacts, and fun facts.
We had a memory bound Table Topics session entitled "Down Memory Lane" as today is the anniversary of 9/11 there is a lot of memories surrounding this day. She asked three questions: 1. what we remembered from this day. 2. What is a memory we have of the happiest moment we have experienced. 3. a memory that stick out as perspective changing.
Check out the video for a full look at this weeks meeting.

What does it mean to be a mentor?
What is a mentor?
Such knowledgeable and experienced people are called mentors. They can be found everywhere. Think about your work. Was there someone who helped you get started in your career, offering advice and guidance, showing you how things worked and how to get things done? Consider your education. Was there a teacher who took a special interest in you and who had an especially positive influence on your life? We all can probably name two people who have had a profound positive effect on our lives.
A mentor:
Takes a personal interest in and helps an inexperienced person (mentee)
Serves as a role model, coach, and confidante
Offers knowledge, insight, perspective, and wisdom useful to the mentee
Helps someone become successful and learns new skills themselves
Most new members join a club because they have problems and/or needs that relate to speaking and leadership. They believe that improving their speaking and leadership skills will help them advance in their career or offer them greater personal satisfaction. They expect the club to help them solve their problems and meet their needs.
With the aid of a mentor, new members:
Learn the program. Mentors help new members become familiar with the CC and CL
manuals (or the first two levels of Pathways), club meeting roles, and opportunities available through membership.
Learn club standards and customs. Mentors help new members learn about the club and its activities.
Develop confidence. Armed with the knowledge mentors provide, new members’ self-confidence increases.
