Ladies’Night means different things in different places. It can be a group of women out on the town together or it can be a formal dinner where the ladies are being honoured. Either way it is a social occasion and deserving of a toast to the ladies. What is said depends, of course, on who is speaking. It may be a gentleman who speaks of the many attributes of ladies and what they mean in men’s lives. Alternatively, it could be a speech given by a woman about the joys and perhaps problems of being a woman in today’s society. Such a speech should not be long but it should be thought provoking and light-hearted in places. It should ensure that those present actually think about ladies and how they enrich society. Ladies deserve a night out now and again and a good speech ending with a suitable toast will greatly add to the occasion. The hand that rocks the world is definitely one worth talking about.

Whether you are coming or going doesn’t really matter. What matters is what you say on the day. Clubs and organisations all over the world have incoming and outgoing officers and once in their term of office they are expected to give an incoming or an outgoing officer’s speech. Obviously they should speak about the work of the club. If they are newly elected they should speak of the challenges ahead and mention the great work done by their predecessor. If they are retiring from the post they should speak of work already done and the great help given to them by committee members. Such a speech should also welcome their replacement and promise to assist him or her in his or her efforts. Above all the speeches should be motivational expressing the view that the work done by the club or association is very worthwhile. Such speeches should reach out to the ordinary members of the club saying how important their role is too. Above all club speeches should sell the club and all it stands for.

Leave your mark. That’s what you should do when you are resigning from a club or society. No matter how wonderfully you have worked you should still give a resignation speech they will remember. It should be gracious in tone, thanking all those who have helped you over your term of office. It should welcome the incumbent to the post and speak highly of what you expect him or her to do. You will also, of course, indicate that you will always be ready to put your expertise at his or her disposal. You should speak of what has been achieved during your term of office but without your taking credit for it. Above all it should mention the needs of the club or association into the future and you should speak of the challenges ahead. If it is appropriate you might end your speech with a toast to the organisation in question.
