Breakout 2: Pathways to Rotary – Our product hasn’t changed much in 118 years, yet our “market” is clearly looking for something different.  Here’s how to help your clubs migrate from “Rotary Model A” to a product that’s irresistible to today’s potential member.

Breakout 3: Spicing It Up – A Train the Trainer session — Deep-seated culture is at the root of most clubs’ success or failure.  Tools you can use to coach club leaders to successfully become change agents.

Breakout 4: Discover Rotary Made Easy – The gold standard for membership growth – a Rotary Information Hour, or Discover Rotary, is the #1 highest return on investment strategy for attracting members. Learn how to use a ready-made “toolbox” to do this simple event without a lot of heavy lifting.

Breakout 2: Polio Eradication | Polio, the longest yard! It’s crunch time, time to engage every Rotarian to share in a historic world event. Discover and share what really works!

Breakout 3: Encouraging Giving and Identifying a Speaker for Foundation Events | An interactive session to hear from your peers about best practices for connecting with beliefs to inspire and encourage giving, plus tips on identifying compelling speakers.
