Could this work in our club?
- Civic, business and community leaders, emerging leaders, partners and prospective members interested in public-purpose leadership. Use when the club has recent examples of members enabling shared decisions or community capability.
Before you start
- A campaign definition of leadership based on conduct, service, inclusion and accountability.
- Verified examples with shared credit, conflicts disclosed and participants approving representation.
- A civic-neutrality review for every public official, policy topic, event platform and election-period reuse.
At the end: Offer participants a neutral learning or service next step within five business days and review the campaign with non-Rotary civic partners before any election-period reuse.
