Rotary Leadership Institute
RLI is for everyone - Leadership is not a position, it is action.
 
Engage and empower members . . .
Energize and strengthen your Rotary Club . . .
Provide Leadership Development for Members . . . 
Learn about Rotary and have fun!
 
That is the Rotary Leadership Institute experience!
 
Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a facilitated program with active participation - not lecturing. Topics important to Rotary and Rotary Clubs such as Effective Service Projects, Membership Engagement, and understanding The Rotary Foundation are explored. You will discuss real challenges and exchange ideas.
 
Sign up yourself - you will be a more effective leader for your Rotary Club.
 
Nominate members and they will naturally become more engaged because they will have a richer Rotary experience.
 
RLI is a three-part program. Each RLI participant attends three on-day sessions. Here is your chance to start your RLI journey!
 
Part I ONLY - Online
We have been invited to join Rotary District 5520 (New Mexico and a few clubs in Texas).

There is no cost for this online session
