FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

District Governor's Message - The Forgotten Manual (被遗忘的手册)

August 3 - Beijing China

Dear Members of District 85,

亲爱的第85准行政区的会员,

Did you know that of the more than 1250 members currently in the 47 clubs across China that over 80% of these members received two educational manuals when they joined Toastmasters? All members that joined after January 1 2006 received both the Competent Communicator manual and the Competent Leader manual in their New Member Kits. This includes the members of the 28 clubs that chartered in China in the last year. So why did China have only 3 members complete the Competent Leader manual in 2006-2007?
您知道吗？目前，全中国有47 个俱乐部超过1250 名成员，80%在加入Toastmasters时收到了二本教材 。于2006年1月1日之后入会的会员在新会员资料包里都收到了沟通能力教材和领导力教材。这里包括去年中国28个新成立的俱乐部的会员。那为什么在2006-2007年中国仅有3名会员完成了领导力教材的学习？

The answer for this is really quite simple – most of our clubs do not know how to incorporate this manual into their regular meetings so that members can complete the manual and turn in the awards. In part, this was due to a less that adequate introduction of the manuals by Toastmasters International and in part it was due to less focus being placed on the benefits of this manual for our members by our District (then Territorial Council) on helping members to understand the benefits of the program.
这一问题的答案相当简单 – 我们的大多数俱乐部不知道如何将该手册融合到他们的例会中，以便会员们能够完成领导力教材的学习并得到奖励证书。 一方面是因为Toastmasters International 对领导力教材的介绍不够充分，另一方面是由于我们中国区域的没有强调会员可以从这一领导力教材可以得到的好处方面，帮助他们了解使用领导力教材的好处。

The program is designed to be complimentary to the Competent Communication program. The ten project steps in the Competent Leader manual (an outline of the projects is included on our district website at http://www.chinatoastmasters.org/CLManual.htm) have over half of the projects completed by fulfilling roles within our regular club meetings – with roles like the Ah Counter, Timer, Grammarian (or as some clubs call this, Wordsmith), Evaluator (both for speeches and as General Evaluator), Table Topics Master or Toastmaster. Each project is designed to help a member better understand the skills needed in a leader.
该领导力教材的目的是给沟通能力教材一个补充。沟通能力教材中的十大项目 （项目的提纲参考我们区域的网站：http://www.chinatoastmasters.org/CLManual.htm)， 有半数以上的项目可以在我们正常例会角色中完成 – 例如，哼哈官，计时官，语言专家，评估(包括为演讲评估和总评估)，即兴演讲主持人或会议主持人Toastmasters。每一项目都是为帮助会员理解一位领导者应具备的技能而设计的。

The manual requires that each person receive a written evaluation, but there is not a requirement for an oral evaluation – so the completion of the manual requires no additional time in the regular meeting. The other projects do require a little time outside of the regular meetings – either serving on a committee or leading a committee and mentoring a member; all of which can easily be incorporated into fun activities that a part of the normal routine for your club.
领导力教材要求每人接受一次书面的评估，但对口头评估没有要求 – 因此，在例会上完成手册的要求是不需要额外的时间。其余的项目需要一点例会以外的时间 –参与一个委员会，或者领导一个委员会和指导一名会员；这些都可以轻松地融入您的俱乐部正常的活动中。

So will you begin using this manual as part of your routine in your Club? I hope so. I have begun the process of using this manual myself and find that it is very helpful in reminding me what I need to do more of as a leader. I have set a target to complete this manual before the end of December. How many of you will join me in completing this manual this year? How many of you can complete the manual before I do? I challenge every member to begin working in this manual, as it will help you to grow and develop your skills and give you another way that your membership in Toastmasters can allow you to be more tomorrow than you are today.
因此，您将开始在您的俱乐部使用这一领导力教材使其成为你们例会的一部分吗？我希望如此。 我自己已经开始使用这本领导力教材，并体会它很有帮助，提醒我作为一名领导，我需要做的更多。 我已经设立了目标，在今年底完成该领导力教材。你们有多少人将加入我的行列？ 有多少人比我先完成该手册？我给每一位会员一个挑战，开始学习这本领导力教材，因为它将帮助您成长，发展技能，并为您开辟了另一个道路，使明天的您比今天的你更好！
