LTD: Make Your Council the Best it Can Be!

By Jody Waterman, LTD trainer

What is needed to make your Council of Catholic Women organization the best it can be???
The right ATTITUDE! What does the right attitude look like?

A is FOR ASPIRATION
Every leader and all members need to aspire to be the best they can be, and to do the best they are capable of, to make their CCW successful.

T is FOR TEAMWORK
Teamwork is essential to get a job done and to get it done right. As a leader, don’t try to do everything yourself. As a member, resolve to capably complete any task you agree to do.

T is FOR TECHNOLOGY
Great advances have been made in using technology to communicate with members and for publicity. Find a techno-savvy member to help you use today’s technology to its fullest extent.

I is FOR INFORMATION
A group is most successful when information is shared. Decisions can be made by committees, but share these deci-sions with everyone so that things will run smoothly.

T is FOR TENACITY
Never give up! CCW is a great organization and we cannot allow any affiliation to cease to exist. Perseverance is sometimes needed, but it is worth the effort!

U is FOR UNDERSTANDING
Sometimes situations arise that are not what we planned or envisioned. Be understanding and work toward making a potential problem into a success story.

D is FOR DEDICATION
A dedicated leader and dedicated members are an unstoppable combination. Commit yourselves to making CCW the shining star in your community.

E is FOR ENJOY THE EXPERIENCE
By displaying an attitude of success, you will become part of a self-fulfilling prophecy and everyone will become part of this great experience! Enjoy your success and plan for greater success in the future.
