Description
Round Table is an international movement with active members in most European countries and Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. Round Table International is governed by board members elected at the various Annual General Meetings. The board meets regularly to establish policies and make recommendations as to the overall direction of Round Table on a global basis. Membership to Round Table is open to all men between 18 and 40 (45 in specific associations). It provides its members with a selection of social and community service related opportunities. The motto of Round Table International is "Adopt, Adapt, Improve." The name and the motto were taken from a speech given by Edward VIII, then Prince of Wales to the British Industries Fair in 1927: The organization interprets the motto as follows: *Adopt: The members or the Tablers adopt sound methods that have proved successful in the past. *Adapt: Tablers adapt to any situation and tackle any problem with grace. Every Tabler is a great personality having extensive knowledge and intelligence to overcome any problem. *Improve: The Tablers in the various tables worldwide strive to improve their reach, productivity. They are supported in their service by CSR funds and other sponsorships.References
