New Voices Fireside #20
Fireside of the Partnership
Last update: 7 November 2022
Welcome to the landing page of Fireside of the Partnership. All visuals, links, briefs and insights of the Fireside #20 will be here.
In this fireside:
We welcomed our latest team member.
▪︎ Leo Giacomo Sillani from Italy.
▪︎ Now our team has a Leo and two former Leos.
▪︎ We'll finish this year with our current 10 team members.
IP Brian Sheehan was the special guest of the event.
▪︎ About New Voices: He mentioned that the New Voices Initiative is a success story which is very important to LCI's membership retention and membership recruitment. Sheehan thanked New Voices Team Europe and confirmed his 110% support. He finished his words by stating that the incoming officers feel the same way to keep the initiative strong.
▪︎ About partnership: He reminded us that we should put our knowledge, skills, labor or whatever we have to our team's use. District governors and teams cannot achieve their goals alone — but together we can.
▪︎ Watch his whole speech below.
