The Rotary Club - A center for efficient services When the Club Leadership Plan was being developed, the main idea was to provide Rotary Clubs with an administrative structure that could maximize efficiency. Therefore, an optional tentative organizational chart was created to provide clubs with ideas of administrative roles and tasks performed at the club level. With the Avenues of Service as the basis for club actions, the tasks were defined and distributed among committees, allowing the clubs to be efficiently managed with their help. With the new Avenue of Service dedicated to Youth, it is time to redistribute the tasks and appoint a steering committee to take care of all subjects related to our Youth. Besides the planned activities focusing on the younger generations within RI’s structured programs, concrete actions in regards to youth can generate effective projects to decrease the needs of this community group. The chair of this steering committee will have a place on the club’s Board, and along with the other board members will help plan the club’s future. This reengineering process is focused on efficiency, and therefore, requires clubs to include two equally important permanent activities: medium-term planning and new leadership development. To ensure that these two activities are as efficient as possible, the club must conduct club performance and membership assessment.
