As an Area Director, you serve as the direct liaison between the district and the clubs. You are part of Toastmasters International, an organization with a noble mission: to empower individuals to become more effective communicators and leaders.

We are still looking for more area directors for the 2021-2022 leadership year.

Being an area director is a great way to build leadership skills, grow relationships, and earn a district service credit for your Distinguished Toastmaster (DTM). The divisions in need of area directors are Agave, Mesquite, and Saguaro.
