In a recent survey, Rotary International learned that engaging members and delivering value was a challenge that 42% of respondents said was the toughest. Engaged Rotarians have found something that is valuable and that is why they stay members and invite others to join. Understanding (and being at peace with) where you are as a club is a first step. A quick second step is to plan how you’d like to move forward. Hear are some great resources to help you do all of that.

Three things you can do next to help your club thrive: 
  1. With your club leadership team take the Club Health Check. This interactive guide asks you to review elements of your club like the club experience, service and socials, members, public image, and business and operations. Then decide which areas need attention. 
  2. Learn from clubs in our region that are changing the experience they offer by engaging their members, conducting meaningful projects, and trying new ideas.
  3. Share what you’ve learned about the health of your club and ask members for their ideas. Lasting change happens when everyone works toward the same goals. When you’ve developed a plan, you can customize this slide presentation to explain it during a club meeting. 
If you haven’t yet explored the Club Planning Assistant, it’s available anytime, and you can visit it as often as you like. Your District Leadership team is here, please remember that your Assistant Governor or any of us are available and happy to help.
