Rotary Leadership Institute

This is a GREAT way to learn about the huge scope of Rotary, meet Rotarians from all over the district, AND get some great ideas (for example, our policy of donating a book to the library to thank speakers came from RLI).

The Rotary Leadership Institute will offer Parts I, II, III and Graduate courses.  See below for a little more information.  Each course costs $85, but the club will reimburse your registration costs.  Click HERE to register.

Here is some more information about RLI:

Have you ever heard fellow Rotarians mention RLI and wondered, “What exactly is RLI?” Or, perhaps you do know what RLI is but aren’t sure if you should attend?

As your new District 7910 RLI Chair, I want to ensure I have provided answers to the Who, What, When, Where, Why & How of RLI.

1.  WHAT is RLI?  The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a multi-district, grassroots leadership development program of member districts organized into regional divisions in various parts of the world. 

The Institute offers a leadership development program in three full-day sessions (Parts I, II and III). The courses are designed to provide Rotary knowledge and to develop leadership skills for voluntary organizations. Some examples of course sessions include:

• A Look Outside the Club
• Membership Orientation and Activation
• Introduction to Leadership
• Creating Service Projects
• Problem Solving Workshops
• Vocational Service
• Effective Committees
• Membership Development
• The Rotary Foundation
• Analyzing a Rotary Club
• The Object of Rotary
• The District
• International Service
• Problems of Leadership
• Creative Service
• Written Communications
• Motivating Rotarians and Effecting Change

2.  WHO should attend RLI?  RLI seeks to have Rotary Clubs in its member districts identify those Rotarians who appear to have the potential for future club leadership (not necessarily as club presidents) and provide those so identified with a quality education in Rotary knowledge and leadership skills so important in voluntary organizations.  Anyone interested in learning more about Rotary and how Clubs, Districts and International interrelate will also find RLI a great resource.  Perhaps you have no current interest in a formal Club or District leadership role, but you are interested in helping in a Global grant, growing your Club’s membership, or how to run effective Community / Fundraising projects.  RLI may be helpful to you as well.

3.  WHY attend RLI?  As previously mentioned, RLI can help those interested in getting involved in Club or District leadership, those with a particular interest in segments of Rotary’s endeavors, or those wishing to gain a greater awareness and better understanding of Rotary as a volunteer organization.
