Rotary Leadership Institute

On Saturday, March 30, 2024, the first in-person RLI session since October 2019 was held! The Rotary Leadership Institute, or RLI for short, is designed as three interactive, facilitated sessions focusing on topics designed to provide Rotary knowledge and develop leadership skills.

RLI does not provide position specific training, such as for a president or a board member. Instead, it is an opportunity for EVERY Rotarian to really “discover Rotary” using the three different tracks of knowledge.

For the first session back, they had six Rotarians from six different Clubs from three different cities attend Part I!

Part I centers on the basics of being a Rotarian. This is the fundamental building block of a strong Rotary. Without strong Rotarians there is no future for Rotary so that is why we start with you, the member!

RLI believes that having leadership skills does not alone assure good Rotary leadership. An effective Rotary leader must ALSO have Rotary knowledge, perspective on where Rotary has been, where it is now and a vision of what it could be in the future.

Having so many clubs represented shows how passionate we are about the future of Rotary and that our Clubs want the best leaders and members possible! This is just one of the many reasons why we are the BEST ROTARY DISTRICT IN THE UNIVERSE!!

The next session of RLI will be held on April 20^th and will include Parts I and II. EVERYONE IS INVITED TO ATTEND!! Click here for more information.

NOTE: They are actively seeking businesses that would like to host a session of RLI. If your place of business has room to host three separate meetings of 8-12 people simultaneously, please email Kathryn Schubert at dgkathryn5650@gmail.com.

When you schedule programs, it is suggested that you give the speaker the following information:

The speaker should plan to arrive a few minutes before noon to set up. Lunch will be served at noon and his/her program will commence at about 12:30pm.
The program should last about 20 minutes plus an additional 5-10 minutes for questions. The program must be concluded no later than 1:00pm so members can get back to their businesses.
