The Club Leadership Plan is the recommended administrative structure for Rotary clubs.  It is based on the best practices of effective Rotary clubs.  As each Rotary club is unique, the Club Leadership Plan is flexible enough to support the individual needs of clubs around the world.  It is not mandatory for any club to adopt the Club Leadership Plan, but the Rotary Club ofWichita has adopted the plan and organized our committees, constitution and bylaws accordingly.

The Club Leadership Plan encourages and utilizes the following best practices of Rotary clubs worldwide:

• Develop long-range goals that address the elements of an effective club.
• Set annual goals that support long-range goals.
• Make sure that all club members feel involved and informed.
• Keep the lines of communication open, both in the club and with the district.
• Ensure continuity in leadership from year to year.
• Customize the bylaws to reflect club operations.
• Provide regular fellowship opportunities.
• Actively involve all club members.
• Offer regular and consistent training

The goal of the Club Leadership Plan is to create an effective club that pursues the Object of Rotary, carrying out activities along each Avenue of Services.  Effective clubs are able to achieve the Object of Rotary by:

• Sustaining or increasing their membership base
• Implementing successful projects that address the needs of its community and communities in other countries
• Supporting the Rotary Foundation through both financial contributions and program participation
• Developing leaders capable of serving in Rotary beyond the club level

The five pillars of the Club Leadership Plan for organizational structure are:

• Membership
• Public Relations
• Administration
• Service Projects
• The Rotary Foundation
