Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
2. THE LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE SERIES
Toastmasters International’s The Leadership Excellence Series is a set of presentations addressing the
subject of leadership. Members will learn about the skills that they need to be successful leaders
inside and outside of Toastmasters.
Presentations in The Leadership Excellence Series may be offered by any club member and
require 10 to 15 minutes to present.
CONDUCTING THE PRESENTATION
“Goal Setting and Planning” discusses the processes leaders use to set goals and develop plans to
achieve those goals. This product consists of four parts:
Definition and explanation of the presentation
Guidelines for your introduction to the audience
Outline for the development of your speech
CD of a PowerPoint presentation to be viewed along with your speech
In Your Own Words
The outline is not a script and should not be read word-for-word. Instead, use the
document as a guide for presenting the material in your own words and with your
own narrative style. The outline is a structure on which to build your presentation.
Use the points of the outline to develop your speech, but be the author of your
own oration.
Here are some tips on using this outline to develop and deliver your presentation:
Study the outline carefully. Familiarize yourself with the general structure. Preparation is the
key to a successful presentation.
Use the outline to build your own speech using your own words. Prepare a set of notes
i
ndicating where you wish to pause, gesture, or add special verbal emphasis. Highlight key
words or entences to help you present the material most effectively.
s
Be expressive when delivering your speech. Use all of the presentation skills you have learned
as a oastmaster including vocal variety and gestures.
T
USING VISUAL AIDS EFFECTIVELY
Visual aids add interest to any presentation and help your audience retain information. You are
encouraged to use them. If you plan to use the PowerPoint slides for this presentation as visual aids,
you will need a rojector, a laptop computer, a table to support them, and a screen for viewing.
p
In the outline, there are indications for placement of the PowerPoint slides. Each is numbered. For
example, V1 refers to the first visual.
Please note that the first slide in the PowerPoint show is a title slide and is not included in this
numbering system.

3. If you cannot arrange for projection equipment but still would like to use visuals, you may copy
the material on the visuals onto a flipchart. Do this before the presentation. Use a heavy marking
pen that does not seep through the paper, and write on every third or fourth page so succeeding
visuals will not show through. Also, make your letters large and heavy, with plenty of space
between them.
Follow these tips when using visual aids:
Set them up and test them before the meeting begins. Place them so they are easily visible
to listeners. Place your projector so it projects a large, high, undistorted image on the screen.
Focus the image.
Bring spare equipment, including a projector bulb, extension cord, extra marking pens, etc.
Display your visuals only when they are needed. If you are using a flipchart, flip the page back
out of view when you are finished with it.
Remember not to stand between the screen or flipchart and your audience or you will block
their view.
Maintain eye contact with your listeners. Do not talk to the screen or flipchart. If you must turn
your back to point out something, pause as you point it out, and then resume speaking only
after you are once again facing your audience.
EVALUATION AND THE ADVANCED LEADER BRONZE (ALB) AWARD
Because this is an outlined presentation, for presenting it you will not receive credit for completing
a anual speech project, but you may receive credit toward your Advanced Leader Bronze (ALB)
m
award. Ask your vice president education to assign an evaluator for your presentation.
Conducting any two presentations from The Successful Club Series and/or The Leadership
Excellence Series is one component of qualification for ALB recognition. For further details, please
view the Toastmasters International website: www.toastmasters.org/membereducation.

Outline
INTRODUCTION:
Successful leaders focus on what they want to achieve. They know what they want, and they devise
ways to get it. The secret to their success is their ability to set and achieve specific goals. The abilities
to set clear goals and plan how to achieve them are important leadership skills. If you cannot iden-
tify and communicate goals and plan how to achieve them, you will have difficulty fulfilling other
leadership responsibilities.
DEFINITIONS
V1
A goal is a specific objective you and your team must achieve.
A plan is the blueprint for achieving these goals. V2
CHARACTERISTICS OF GOALS
Goals should not be grand or complex. They need only be statements of results you hope to
achieve. For example, a Toastmasters club president’s goal may be “To be a Distinguished Club by
June 30.” A vice president education’s goal may be “To have three members receive their CC award
by May 31.”
A goal has several characteristics. It is:
Specific. It clearly states what must happen. V3
Measurable. Results can be easily validated.
Action-oriented. It begins with the word “to,” followed by a verb.
Realistic. It is challenging, yet practical and achievable – not too high or low.
Time-bounded. It contains a timetable for achievement.
IMPLEMENTING GOALS V4
Involve team members in setting goals. People increase commitment to goals when they
are involved in setting them. They develop a sense of ownership and will take responsibility
for results since they have a personal stake in them.
Write each goal, for best results. This will make a goal easier to remember. It also will be
easier to track your progress toward it.
Consider what you must do to achieve it, once you have written a goal. What problems or
obstacles could be encountered? By identifying and resolving potential conflicts now, you will
be able to focus on the goal.
Regularly review progress toward the goal. Are you where you should be in accomplishing
it? If so, great! If not, determine the reason for the delay and then take action.

6. V5 PLANNING PROCESS
A plan describes how a goal will be achieved. It provides the structure needed to accomplish daily
o
rganizational activities. A plan outlines the necessary activities, the resources to be allocated, and
how the work will be assigned. It gives guidance and direction to everyone involved in achieving
the goal. A plan ensures the object will be achieved efficiently and effectively. Planning is important
for everal reasons:
s
Planning reinforces goals. Planning puts goals in the forefront. Since goals are the starting
point for plans, leaders always remember their goals.
Planning makes leaders more future-oriented. Leaders are forced to look beyond the
present to project what will happen in the future.
Planning enables leaders to coordinate decisions. Decisions should not be made without
considering their effects on the future.
Planning ensures efficient use of resources. Without planning, resources are often overused
or wasted, putting a strain on deadlines and stress levels. Leaders that make wise use of man-
power and materials have a happier workforce and a productive process.
V6 FIVE STEPS TO PLANNING
Once goals are determined, the planning process can be broken down into five easy steps.
1. Establish strategies. Identify how you will achieve the goal. List the specific steps that must be
taken to move toward the goal.
■■ Example: If a club president’s goal is to be a Distinguished Club, he or she should list the
specific steps the club must take if it were to achieve this goal by using the Distinguished
Club Program.
2. Set a timetable. Priorities and scheduling are critical to planning. Make a list of tasks according
to their priority and establish specific deadlines for their completion.
■■ Example: A club should establish a deadline for meeting the CC goal.
3. Assign responsibilities. Delegate tasks to the team, matching the task to the person best
suited for it. The success of a team depends on all members fulfilling their responsibilities. Be
sure that each team member commits to completing his or her assigned duties.
■■ Example: The president assigns the task of having two members earn CC awards this year to
the vice president education. In turn, the vice president education identifies two members
who are close to completing the Competent Communication manual and persuades them
to finish their manuals by the deadline. Then, he or she schedules these members to speak
so they can meet the deadline.
4. Anticipate obstacles. Good leaders think about potential problems.
■■ Example: The vice president education realizes one of the potential CC applicants will be
out of town for several meetings, so he schedules the member to speak only at meetings
the member will be able to attend.
5. Modify the plan as necessary. Even leaders with the most vivid imaginations cannot possibly
i
magine all of the challenges or problems that may occur as a team strives to achieve its goals.
L
eaders must be flexible and change plans as needed.
6 THE LEADERSHIP EXCELLENCE SERIES • GOAL SETTING AND PLANNING
7. ■■ Example: If the vice president education realizes one of the individuals trying to achieve
their CC award will not achieve it in time then he or she looks to the rest of the club
members, who may be close to achieving the CC award, to fulfill that goal.
Involvement V7
As in setting goals, you should involve team members in the planning process.
Participation allows team members to:
Exercise creative ability
Apply problem-solving skills
Increase commitment to achieve the established goals
THE DISTINGUISHED CLUB PROGRAM V8
Toastmasters International’s Distinguished Club Program is an excellent example of goal setting and
planning. It shows the club how to set goals at the beginning of the year and determine how to
achieve these goals. It also includes a document to write down these goals and plans. The format
could also be used for the work place or for other organizations to which a member belongs.
CONCLUSION V9
Careful goal setting and planning are the keys to achieving results and to making an individual a
s
uccessful leader. By using the information conveyed, a person will be able to set goals and develop
plans that will result in achieving those goals.
