A special Future Leaders’ Seminar for all Rotarians wanting to develop their leadership skills in Rotary at all levels, business and life is on Monday 15 October 2012 in Invercargill, New Zealand.
The inaugural Future Leader’s Seminar
was an outstanding success last year in Brisbane, so that success has been
built upon to develop a new programme that focuses on the five key attributes
of leadership for this year’s New Zealand event.
The topics covered include the ability
to develop a vision that aligns with
Rotary’s beliefs and values, and to communicate
this in a way that enables others to buy into it. Then focus passion and commitment
using a high level
of energy, directing positive action
maintained over time, bringing others along with them.
The Future Leaders’ Seminar will
inspire a hunger for leadership generally, and an excitement for Rotary while
motivating participants to become leaders in their clubs and districts. It will also help them to build their
networks and volunteer their skills to improve communities.
The day includes a mix of plenaries with quality speakers from a
cross section of business experience and leadership backgrounds, supported by
discussion breakout sessions to further develop concepts presented in the
plenaries.
Rotarians attending the Future Leaders’ Seminar will also have the
rare opportunity to
experience the internationality of Rotary, while meeting and socialising from
Friday 12 to Sunday 14 October with senior Rotary leaders
at Rotary Zone 7b Institute
- an event usually restricted to current, past and incoming District Governors and their partners from around
the world.
In addition, there are other value-added events, including a Future Vision Seminar immediately following Institute.
While some districts and clubs may
choose to support their current and future leaders to attend the seminar, any
Rotarian who has not previously attended a Future Leader’s Seminar can register
themselves.
All Rotarians are encouraged to
register as soon as possible. Full
