TRAINING EVENTS

For Rotary International District 5960 Incoming 2023-2024 Club Presidents 

The sessions are based on the expectations of Rotary International and are meant to prepare you for your leadership role in Rotary.
 
Rotary District Leadership and other Rotarian guests with particular expertise in the specific content area will conduct these leadership development sessions.
 
Much of the material to be covered will come from the Rotary Learning Center, where you will want to know more about your ongoing learning.
 
You will be introduced to the President’s responsibilities, and “Leadership Development” is a principal part of the President’s role in creating a team and assuring succession planning. 
 
Topics to be covered are:
  • What does it mean to be President of your club?
  • How do you create an environment for Leadership Development in your club?
  • What is leadership and what is management?
  • The importance of intentional succession planning

Preparing for the presidents-elect training seminar

As presidents-elect prepare for PETS, we would like to remind you that two learning plans are available to help you prepare for your term as club president. (Must log into https://learn.rotary.org/ to view.)

 

 

 

 
Take these courses before PETS to learn the fundamental elements of the president's role.
 
Take these courses after PETS and before 1 July to build on the session and prepare for the year.
