Executive Leadership Breakfast

Uses a small, confidential breakfast to secure senior cross-organisation decisions on one community priority, with each attendee chosen for a relevant lever rather than status.

What could this idea change?

A time-sensitive issue gains coordinated executive decisions and resource commitments without a large public event.

A simple way to start

  1. Name the decision and invite only leaders controlling a relevant lever. Who could lead it: Executive convenor
  2. Pre-brief participants and collect conflicts plus decision constraints. Who could lead it: Secretariat
  3. Open with the community owner's evidence and requested outcome. Who could lead it: Priority owner
  4. Facilitate decisions, dependencies and named commitments within 75 minutes. Who could lead it: Independent chair
  5. Confirm the record bilaterally and begin delivery immediately. Who could lead it: Accountability secretary

What should we look for?

  • Required decision-makers attending with authority.

Before we say yes

  • Does it fit a real local need?
  • Can people take part safely and fairly?
  • Are the facts, permissions and Rotary branding right?
  • Who will lead it, and when will we review it?
