Strengthen Your Clubs Workshops

By Neville John, District Director Membership

The District Support Team is conducting three facilitated workshops in August 2018, involving Warwick Cavell (Facilitator), Kerry Kornhauser OAM (Public Image/Communications), Yvonne Flynn (Club Service) and PDG Neville John (Membership Director).

These workshops will be hands-­on interactive sessions that will include:

• Leading change in your Club
• Identifying the elements of a strong, vibrant club
• Project identification and selection
• Member and Community engagement
• Promoting your club projects and activities
• Your One-Page plan on membership recruitment and retention

Two members from each club are invited to attend, preferably President and/or Membership rep. The workshop is general in nature and not club specific and will provide an understanding of the process that can be used and ideas around how other things, if done properly can improve member recruitment prospects and retention.

If the attendees feel that their club could use some help thereafter in implementing what they want to try, the membership support team will meet with their Board to explain the process and set up a club forum.

There is NO COST to the Club and members can attend any of the sessions that suit them best.

• 12 August 2018 - Rotary Gateway Function Centre, 26 High St, Kangaroo Flat 3555
