THE CLUB LEADERSHIP PLAN
The Club Leadership Plan is the recommended administrative structure for Rotary clubs. It is based on the best practices of effective Rotary clubs. As each Rotary club is unique, the Club Leadership Plan is flexible enough to support the individual needs of clubs around the world. It is not mandatory for any club to adopt the Club Leadership Plan, but every Rotary club, new and old, will benefit from standardizing its administrative procedures based on these best practices:
- Develop long-range goals that address the elements of an effective club.
- Set annual goals that support long-range goals.
- Make sure that all club members feel involved and informed.
- Keep the lines of communication open, both in the club and with the District.
- Ensure continuity in leadership from year to year.
- Customize the bylaws to reflect club operations.
- Provide regular fellowship opportunities.
- Actively involve all club members.
- Offer regular, consistent training.
The goal of the Club Leadership Plan is to create an effective club that pursues the Object of Rotary, carrying out activities along each Avenue of Service. Effective clubs are able to achieve the Object of Rotary by
- Sustaining or increasing their membership base.
• Implementing successful projects that address the needs of its community and communities in other countries
- Supporting The Rotary Foundation through both financial contributions and program participation.
- Developing leaders capable of serving in Rotary beyond the club level
The Club Leadership Plan can help clubs increase their ability to meet their goals in each Avenue of Service. Implementing successful service projects affects Vocational, Community, and International Service. Increased membership gives a club a greater pool of Rotarians working in each avenue. Supporting the Rotary Foundation affects both Community and International Service. Streamlined processes, better communication, strategic planning, and increased member involvement will improve Club Service. With efficient operations in place, your club can become more effective in conducting its service activities. The Club Leadership Plan will allow your club to devote more effort to each Avenue of Service and reach the Object of Rotary.
