"The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing in the right place but to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment"

What Others Say...

 
 

Carmen is an extraordinary leader.  She continues to support and coach several Delaware Toastmaster clubs.  She has planned and organized district conferences and serves as a great role model for many Toastmasters.  As a member of Caesar Rodney Toastmaster (CRTM) club, she is the heart and soul of the club. 

Additionally, an immigrant herself, Carmen understands the importance of education.  She and her husband are actively involved in Trinidad & Tobago Cultural Association of Delaware.  Both of them tirelessly participate in annual scholarship fundraising events for Caribbean youths.

In spite of numerous obstacles, Carmen is still like an “energizer bunny”, who always keeps going.  Dr. John Maxwell, a well-known leadership author and speaker once said, “Leadership is influence.”  Carmen, a great leader has influenced more people than she realizes.  I am fortunate that our life paths have crossed.  Thank you for everything you have done!

I have known Carmen Lee Pow since the mid 1990’s, she is a Distinguished Toastmaster and Past District Governor, who is widely-regarded as among the most influential leaders in our organization, and in the state of Delaware. There is no question in my mind that our organization would not have its presence or effectiveness it has without Carmen’s direct and indirect contributions. The number of clubs she has helped form and strengthened, members and contest champions she has assisted, are likely to never be equaled in our state. She has touched many lives. Her standards are very high. I have never known her to conduct herself in anything less than the most professional of manner. She is a role model to many.

I’ve benefited from Carmen’s wisdom. I’ve observed how she cares so much for others. I’ve also seen several occasions where Carmen has shown people that- with the right approach- the approach that she uses- people can achieve what they once thought out of reach. In private discussions, I can attest to Carmen’s keen analytical skills in presentation skills. If someone has a presentation that matters a great deal to them- and they would seek professional guidance- I would certainly suggest that they reach out to Carmen. For organizations/companies  who are looking for someone who connects very well with her audience, Carmen Lee Pow should be on their short list.
