Cindy Guthrie, District 6490 Coordinator and RLI Regional Coordinator for D6490, 6510, and 6460 answers the question "Why RLI?"

RLI facilitators, like teachers and professors, are always looking for feedback from participants.  How did we do? What did you learn, what can we do to make the program better?  Maybe that’s why it was so rewarding to hear a seasoned Rotarian tell a new Rotarian how valuable RLI was.  He said,  “I’ve been a Rotarian for almost 30 years and learned four or five things at RLI that I previously did not know.”

I am sure you have seen the commercials that run on the theme of
"What's In Your Wallet?"  It's about having an advantage in your shopping experience.

Did you know that the Rotary Leadership - Heart of America Division has a similar question for you? This question is: -- "What's in your personal toolkit?" Let me explain -

- The real advantages of the RLI experiences include more knowledge about many aspects of Rotary that is gained, such as how Rotary works and how you might make something happen that would be very important to others and yourself.  Along with an increased knowledge of Rotary, opportunities exist to further develop your leadership skills in a volunteer organization and to meet new friends.

Recently, I personally learned much from a brief survey about the use of one word "ENGAGEMENT". As a result of the experience, it has become very important to me that I listen intently to, partner with, and remove barriers for others. Interestingly these themes are also accomplished through our facilitation and sharing experiences in RLI. I want to help you in your District!

RLI has the potential to help each of our Districts to move forward, while helping Rotarians reach their full potential of “making a meaningful difference.”  I encourage you to join with RLI-HOA leadership, to help identify the barriers to implementing a successful District RLI program where you live.

In the aftermath of the Covid pandemic, many Rotary Clubs are damaged; your help is needed to increase the momentum forward in strengthening Rotary. 

Call to Action
The leadership of RLI-HOA is asking each RLI District within our division to graduate 1 (one) person from RLI during the 2022-2023 year.  Of course, more would be better, but if you can help one person, your District will begin moving forward.

Is there a difference between the Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) classes and the other training that one can receive in Rotary? Is the training in one area as good as the training in another? These are great questions to help explain why RLI training is a unique experience.

Rotary offers great training that improves the effectiveness of our organization. Examples are PETS training for Presidents-Elect which prepares an incoming officer for their new assignment.
