Rotary Leader Nov 2020
Helping Club and District Leaders achieve Success

Leadership Development available from Toastmasters
 
As part of our alliance with Toastmasters International, we’re offering a series of leadership and communication courses to Rotary and Rotaract members.
 
The first two courses, now available in multiple languages in the Learning Centre, discuss fundamental leadership skills like motivation, integrity, and team inclusiveness.
 
You’ll also discover how ethics, decision making, goal setting, and delegating help you develop the skills necessary to lead a team effectively.
 
Watch this video to learn how to find the courses in the Learning Centre and how to get the most out of them.

It was good to have another committee meeting last week. The committees are doing good work so don't put in your apologies. Be part of making things happen. 
 
We are into the silly season and our trailer raffle is underway again. I see many of our members are getting involved and thank you for that. 
 
There are a lot of membership initiatives underway at present, many of them involving younger people who things differently to ourselves. I have asked District Club Development chair Arie to brief us on Thursday about these initiatives.
 
Cheers
