4-Way Test Speech Contest
Mar. 01, 2019 12:00 p.m.
From the earliest days of the organization, Rotarians were concerned with promoting high ethical standards in their professional lives. One of the world's most widely printed and quoted statements of business ethics is The 4-Way Test, which was created in 1932 by Rotarian Herbert J. Taylor (who later served as RI president) when he was asked to take charge of a company that was facing bankruptcy. This 24-word test for employees to follow in their business and professional lives became the guide for sales, production, advertising, and all relations with dealers and customers, and the survival of the company is credited to this simple philosophy. Adopted by Rotary in 1943, The 4-Way Test has been translated into more than a hundred languages and published in thousands of ways. It asks the following four questions: "Of the things we think, say or do:

Three Mistakes That Cost Entrepreneurs a Bigger Income
May 10, 2019 12:00 p.m.
We are excited to announce that Dagmar Fleming, the founder of Unlock Your Success program and creator of the Triple Quantum Reset process will be speaking at the Southlake Rotary Club on May 10, 2019, 12 pm at the Timarron Country Club. She will be sharing with us the three mistakes that cost entrepreneurs a bigger income. Dagmar is renowned as a success coach and mentor for personal transformation. She is also an entrepreneur & the founder of DBF International, a global consulting firm. About Dagmar, taken from her website: “I'm Dagmar Fleming, and I'm a genuine business hybrid - a blend of traditional, straightforward global business woman, spiritual and emotional healer, and intuitive empath. If you are skeptical because you think "global businesswoman" and "spiritual and emotional healer, and intuitive empath" are mutually exclusive, feel how powerfully the words, DISSOLVE EMOTIONAL BLOCKS TO YOUR BUSINESS SUCCESS, resonate within you, and if they do, keep reading. When I was in my teens, I had an early interest in business. Over the years, I went on to enjoy a highly successful international business career. As I moved into adulthood, I could not have been more surprised as I came to realize, that while my head for business was certainly a factor, my success was due in larger part to something completely beyond my business acumen. I discovered I also possessed incipient intuitive empathic abilities, as well as an aptitude for energy channeling, and spiritual and emotional healing. Think of it as a balance between my business Left Brain and my empathic Right Brain. With focused intention and purpose over the years, I cultivated and developed my Right Brain abilities to help others to identify and reprogram the negative emotional/energetic patterns that continually sabotage our ability to reach the full potential.” This should be a wonderful and informative program.

Amon Carter—The Ultimate Texan
Jun. 14, 2019 12:00 p.m.
Come to our next meeting to meet Dave Lieber, journalist, writer and playwright of the upcoming premiere of “AMON! The Ultimate Texan.” This will be a great and entertaining presentation! [Taken from website: AmonPlay.com]: Amon G. Carter, Sr. is returning in the world premiere of AMON! The Ultimate Texan written by renowned journalist and longtime Texan, Dave Lieber. The play honors and celebrates the life and legacy of Amon G. Carter, Sr., the legendary Fort Worth civic booster and benefactor. As O.K. Carter said in a recent Dallas Observer article about Mr. Lieber and the play, “It is difficult to find any person, in any city, anywhere, that has had an impact on a community as much as Amon Carter did. Even though he’s not there, he was there.” Dave Lieber (Playwright) has had a busy year. In addition to writing two investigative columns a week as “The Watchdog” at The Dallas Morning News, Dave finished the script for AMON! THE ULTIMATE TEXAN. He also completed a companion book of the same name that includes 100 classic Amon Carter photos and many stories not in the play. The book is for sale at the end of each performance at Artisan. As “The Watchdog,” Dave writes about matters that affect the lives of his readers—high property taxes, crooked roofers, scheming electric companies and much, much more. Check out his work at DallasNews.com/Watchdog. When he’s not writing, Dave visits groups, companies and associations across the U.S. to entertain and teach business storytelling techniques. He’s earned his Certified Professional Speaking designation, one of only a thousand in the nation. AMON! is his first play—and his eighth book. Other books include The Dog of My Nightmares: Stories by Texas Columnist Dave Lieber and his popular Dave Lieber’s Watchdog Nation: Bite Back When Businesses and Scammers Do You Wrong. Dave is founder of Summer Santa, Inc., one of North Texas’ largest childrens’ charities. Summer Santa sends children in need from greater Northeast Tarrant County to summer camps, collects books and new toys for summertime distribution, sends kids to Artisan for their first play experience and offers free pre-camp medical checkups. Visit SummerSanta.org and learn about this charity that has no paid staff or physical office, but managed to raise and spend more than $1 million on behalf of area children. For his efforts Dave was awarded the Will Rogers Humanitarian Award from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists as the U.S. newspaper columnist who did the most to help his community. Dave’s website is https://davelieber.org/ DaveLieber.org and the play website is AmonPlay.com. |
