I encourage all of us to see that the future of our own Rotary Clubs’ rests on our ability to actively respond to the changing world around us. We need to ensure that all our clubs continue to find ways to ATTRACT, ENGAGE and RETAIN our Rotarians.

1. How do we ATTRACT new members?
Ensure our ‘Public Face’ is on social media and our public activities are portraying an active, inclusive and energetic club that welcomes and supports new people with ideas.
2. How do we ENGAGE our current members?
Rotary research shows most new members leave within the first 3 years because the atmosphere is unwelcoming, stale or inactive. How many have not been engaged in Club activities and the experience has not met their expectations?
3. How do we RETAIN our current members?
By achieving engagement to the retention point where a Rotarian becomes an advocate for Rotary, their club and undertakes a commitment to Rotary.
I encourage all of us to see that the future of our own Rotary clubs’ rests on our ability to actively respond to the changing world around us. We need to ensure that all our clubs continue to find ways to ATTRACT, ENGAGE and RETAIN our Rotarians.
