Rotary Leadership Institute ChallengeThe Rotary Club of Thomasville is excited to issue a club-wide challenge encouraging all Rotarians to attend the upcoming Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) on Saturday, Jan. 10 at Southern Regional Technical College in Thomasville. What is RLI? Rotary Leadership Institute is a multi-district leadership and Rotary development program designed to strengthen Rotary clubs through quality leadership education. RLI courses are led by experienced, trained facilitators and are structured in interactive sessions that focus on developing leadership skills, deepening understanding of Rotary’s mission, and providing practical tools for service, membership, and club effectiveness. RLI is not an official Rotary International program but is highly recommended for members who want to grow, contribute at a higher level, or prepare for future leadership roles. Our Club Challenge The goal is simple: Have at least 10 Thomasville Rotarians registered for RLI by New Year’s Day. Whether you’re a new member seeking a deeper understanding of Rotary or a long-time Rotarian looking to expand your leadership skills, RLI is an engaging, inspiring, and valuable experience with something new to learn for everyone.
