 The Rotary Leadership Institute Training Team has scheduled an Institute for April 17, May 01, and May 15, 2010. It will be held in Penticton at the Ramada Inn.
This is a three-part, facilitated, classroom course to be completed on the three Saturdays. While the interactive discussions will take you from the basics to a practical applicaton of what is needed to be in a club or district leadership position, this course is also extremely beneficial for new Rotarians to enable them to enjoy a very successful and fulfilling experience as a new Rotarian. New Rotarians with leadership ability should seriously consider taking this course to realize that they could apply their leadership potential in Rotary and at the same time gain personal development.
More information can be found by using the link to the Rotary Leadership Institute in the box to the left. General information, the program agenda and a registration form are provided for your review and use.
