Distinguished President Defines… Robert Greenleaf, the founder of the modern servant leadership movement, wrote: “A true leader is called to serve his/her followers, employees, and others in the organization.” The duties of a president of a KIWIN’S club consist of more than just leading meetings. They are a constant balance of keeping members active and involved and keeping the club reputable within the community. The president of a KIWIN’S club shapes the character of the club and is instrumental in determining the success of the club. A distinguished president goes above and beyond the call of duty and exemplifies service leadership. The Distinguished Club President award acknowledges an outstanding president of a KIWIN’S club for his/her commitment to the club and the community.

Distinguished Vice President Defines… Robert Greenleaf, the founder of the modern servant leadership movement, wrote: “A true leader is called to serve his/her followers, employees, and others in the organization.” The duty as a vice president of a KIWIN’S club consists of being more than the president’s assistant. The vice president has to help keep the club productive and assist the president in finding service projects and fundraisers. Two major aspects of great vice presidents are their versatility and will. They are able to perform the duties of all officers in any situation and find ways to make them useful when no particular task is demanded of them. The Distinguished Club Vice President Award acknowledges an outstanding vice president of a KIWIN’S club for his or her commitment to the club and community.
