Multiple District is organising and running a Regional Leadership Institute in Newcastle in August 2011.
The Institute is open to all Lions and Lionesses who have not at that time completed a term as President of a Club. It focuses on building the skills of Lions members in preparation for leadership opportunities at the club level, particularly the positions of Club President and Vice Presidents. The programme includes skills such as communications, member motivation, team building, running effective meetings, diversity of membership, public speaking, and knowledge about Lions programmes.
The programme is organised and run by trained Lions from the Lions Clubs International Faculty.
The Institute is a live-in course and participants are required to attend all sessions over a three day period.
There is a small registration fee of $75 per participant and all accommodation and meals are included in this cost. Participants are required to cover their own transportation costs.
