The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a multi-district, grassroots leadership development program of member districts organized into regional divisions throughout the world. It is not an official program of Rotary International and is not under its control. The RLI seeks to have Rotary Clubs in member districts identify those Rotarians who seem 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 for voluntary organizations. October, 2014 Quote of the Month In the last issue of this eBulletin we wrote about the death of Dr. Warren Bennis, called by some as the "father of leadership". An article about his career noted the following (although it relates to business leadership, there is something to think about for all of us): "He worried about what he called a 'leadership vacuum'....A dearth of visionary business leaders, he said, meant companies were being led more by managers of the bottom line than by passionate, independent thinkers who can steer an organization effectively. "When the very model of a modern manager becomes CEO (Chief Executive Officer), he does not become a leader, he becomes a https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/?ui=2&ik=199c824478&view=pt&search=inbox&th=1490687db07b2a10&siml=1490687db07b2a10

boss, and it is the bosses who have gotten America into its current fix." Something to think about - how many club presidents bring something new to the position rather than just doing what previous club leaders have done??? How many seek input from the rank and file club members before "announcing" a project/program? Odds and Ends about RLI Despite some confusion about this issue, RLI is not a membership development program. It is a leadership development program. However, RLI does have a potentiallypositive effect on membership and especially membership retention by its courses that help to "open up the world of Rotary outside of Rotarians'own clubs". Our long experience has shown that those attending RLI courses become enthusiastic about Rotary and enthusiastic Rotarians are not the ones who voluntarily leave their clubs. The courses also strengthen the leadership skills of those attending and thereby helpsthem to strengthen their clubs. It has been recognized by some R.I. Presidents and others that weak clubs have been a cause of membership losses. Strong clubs obviously do a much better job of attracting and retaining new members. HELP ROTARY IMPROVE RETENTION RATES - SEND ALL NEW ROTARY CLUB MEMBERS TO A RLI COURSE DURING THEIR FIRST YEAR OF MEMBERSHIP Welcome New Divisions/Districts RLI welcomes District 5390 as a member of the Rocky Mountain Division. The district covers the U.S. State of Montana. The Agreement was signed by District Governor Roy Beekman and by PDG T. Michael Forney, Chair of the Rocky Mountain Division. Because of realignment by the R.I. Board, the three districts in Colombia have been merged into two new districts, 4271 and 4281. Both districts have signed new Agreements of MembershipGovernor Ligia Maria Palacio Pasada for District 4271 and Governor Eduardo Jose Ayalde for District 4281.

called "the Camden Sophisticated Sisters." The audience was so enthralled by the group that many, many contributions were made to help support the very talented youth dancers. The two day Annual Meeting of the Division with 92 persons participating, also conducted a Breakfast, business meeting, workshops, presented awards and discussed changes in R.I and the Foundation. Speakers were Rotary International Director Julia Phelps, The Rotary Foundation Vice-Chair, Michael McGovern, PRIVP and Past Director David Linett, International Chair of RLI. Vice-Chair McGovern discussed the new grants model of the Foundation and recent changes in the Foundation's programs. Linett informed the group of recent developments in RLI around the world and some of the philosophy of RLI. Also present was PRIVP Frank Collins, many governors, division officers, district chairs and site chairs, etc. Chair of the Division is PDG Toni McAndrew who is in the last year of her term and has done a wonderful job for our largest division. The Chair-Elect is PDG Ann Keim. Many RLI Divisions conduct Annual Meetings and the RLI Leadership recommends that for ALL RLI Divisions. Join the Sunshine Division Cruise with RLI Courses Here's what PDG Randy Rawiszer, Sunshine Division Chair, announced: "We (RLI Sunshine Division) will have an RLI Cruise on December 10-14, 2015 on Royal Caribbean's Independence of the Seas out of Fort Lauderdale, Florida (USA). This is a very large ship with incredible amenities, including a state of the art Conference Center with perfect breakout rooms for our RLI sessions. This will be a four-night cruise and will be open to all within the 14 member districts of the Sunshine Division as well as anyone from other divisions." Since the cruise is more than a year away, all RLI activists have plenty of time to get ready for a great experience. Around the RLI World We recommend a look at the Sunshine Division web site at www.rlitraining.org. It is very well done.
