Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI)
What is RLI?
The Rotary Leadership Institute is an international network of Rotary and provides a series of fast-paced, interactive, three one-day sessions designed to refine the leadership skills of Rotarians and increase their knowledge of Rotary. The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) believes that excellent club leadership is essential to the future of Rotary in a complex and fast changing world.
Courses are fun, topical, interactive, and geared towards the modern Rotarian’s busy schedule.
Who is the course for?
Most Rotarians have not been exposed to the great scope of Rotary around the world and may have not considered what leadership skills are necessary to move Rotary forward. Rotary clubs are encouraged to select several candidates each year for the RLI. Participants return to their clubs with enthusiasm, new contacts, fresh ideas, an increased understanding of their potential as Rotarians, and with the valuable skills for their potential leadership in the club.

- My Rotary World

- Vocational Service - Ethics
- Leadership and Team Building
- Effective Leadership Strategies
- Membership - Attracting, engaging and retaining members.
