Rotary Coordinator

Rotary coordinators (RCs) serve as a resource on Rotary International for districts and clubs, working in partnership with their zone’s RI director, regional Rotary Foundation coordinator, and district governors. RCs are trained in and knowledgeable about all aspects of RI. By planning and conducting district and regional seminars and workshops with the support of district leaders, RCs Inform Rotarians about RI programs and motivate them to participate Share ideas, success stories, and best practices to motivate club and district leaders Increase membership by creating stronger and more effective clubs Serve as an RI resource in the field, as well as a consultant, adviser, mentor, and catalyst for change Advocate creative approaches that strengthen clubs, programs, and public image Identify resources and connect people Encourage long-range planning at the club and district levels Promote the core values of RI Establish communication tools that work regularly, in all directions Promote the RI Convention

Just as RRFCs are knowledgeable about The Rotary Foundation’s programs, RCs will be a resource when it comes to multiple aspects of Rotary International and its programs, providing a vital link of communication between RI senior leaders and Rotary clubs. RCs will focus on offering guidance and tools in three areas: RI programs such as the youth programs, Rotary Fellowships, and Rotarian Action Groups; best practices that strengthen clubs and districts such as strategic planning, effective public relations, and leadership development; and building membership through stronger clubs and districts. Through their work, RCs will support the three priorities of the RI Strategic Plan : support and strengthen clubs, focus and increase humanitarian service, and enhance public image and awareness. Clubs will also find RCs to be a valuable resource in determining how to meet the annual requirements for the Presidential Citation
