Take a room full of enthusiastic Rotarians, add a mixture of shared ideas and inspirational addresses, sprinkle liberally with a desire to make a difference in Rotary, and you have the perfect recipe for the 2011 Future Leaders Seminar - an exciting innovation thanks to the vision and foresight of Rotary International Director Stuart Heal and the immediate past, current and incoming District Governors of Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific region.
This will be held on Thursday 24 November at a venue immediately adjacent to the Institute venue. Nominated by their districts, these future Rotary leaders (at all levels of Rotary) will get a focussed, unique insight into the international world of Rotary while addressing key topics through faciliated discussion with like-minded peers.
Future Leader's Seminar Convenor, PDG Cathy Roth noted that by nominating suitable Rotarians to attend, districts were ensuring they had strong, knowledgable and capable leaders now and into the future.
The vast majority of districts throughout New Zealand and Australia have enthusiastically supported this initiative and the numbers attending the Future Leaders Seminar are now well over 100 and growing.
The October issue of Rotary Down Under magazine will have an article on this topic - Institute opened to future leaders (page 19)
