The overall approach is to extend, recruit, retain, and revitalize membership using proven formulas.

It can be a pretty dry subject talking about strategy when my tenure as President is just 12 months – What can I hope to change? Are any changes that I implement going to survive my fleeting presence in this position, or is the 12 month Presidency designed to minimise the amount of damage a renegade President might do?One of the problems with Rotary is that it has been slow to embrace change and believe me, Rotary around the world is in real danger of dying a slow and miserable death unless it does. But if it does, then the future is wild and exciting and we can all be part of that. And that’s what I want to talk about with some of my team today.I say some because as members of the Rotary Club of Perth we are all members of that team and all contribute in our own ways to our common goals.I should say that we are not planning on re-inventing the wheel here but building on the great work undertaken by President Kathy and the highly successful Rotary District 9544 Conference in Geraldton.
Today I want to talk about our vision: what the future RCP will look like, the goals we are setting for ourselves for the next 12 months and the strategies we are going to employ to get there.As we do this I’ll be calling upon some of the club directors to outline very briefly their activities for 2012/13 which will support this vision.Those of you who were here for the presentation of the member needs analysis last year, will recognise that a lot of this work has built upon that survey and the foundations laid by President Kathy. This is not by chance but by design. It’s almost impossible to achieve any real change in 12 months so it was important that Kathy and I agreed when I was president elect to maintain the strategic direction set under her tenure and continue to drive that agenda forward. I hope that in 20 minutes time you will agree with me that that’s exactly the right thing to do.
What will the future Rotary Club of Perth Look like if we achieve our vision?Refer to slide:Premier club in Perth for professionals working in the CBD – This is consistent with the needs analysis undertaken last year where nearly 80% of members identified this as an important goal. We want to be seen as the club to go to. The club to be a part of, the club where deals get done in an environment of trust, friendship and respect and a place where everyone can be equal, bound together by our desire to put something back into our community and the ideals embraced in the four way testIs it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships and will it be beneficial to all concerned.If we achieve our vision it will be in a world where we celebrate the past achievements of members publicly and respect their outstanding contributions. A world where we embrace the past but are constantly looking forward embracing new generations, letting go of out-dated activities, embracing new ways of doing things.It will be a world where members eagerly come to meetings to learn about all walks of life from a multitude of interesting and entertaining guest speakers, a world which facilitates a global network of friends and business opportunities all bound together by a common cause. A vibrant international community of Rotarians actively working together to give something back to their local and global communities. Our vision is of a Rotary Club which people know about, hear about all the time and want to get involved. A club that is at the leading edge of communications technologies and responsive to the changing needs of its members.Sounds pretty easy really But this is what Rotary is all about!
They say that you should have no more than 5 goals in a strategic plan but we’ve got 6. We like to break the rules!My mum used to say “If you’ve got it flaunt it” Well, we’re are very good at hiding our light under a bushel but that‘s going to change.Rotary is almost unique in the world by providing a structure to get involved in local and International projects to make the world a better place but sometimes that structure and process can be daunting and off putting – RI is changing that and in 2012-13 we’ll be looking to contribute to both local and international projects that present real opportunities for engagement.In 2011 members urged us to look at a new iconic project that we could engage with. In 2012 we’ll be launching a project that has taken over a year to develop The Kimberly Dental Team project, a joint venture with the Rotary Club of Herrison and Kunnanurra. More details of that later. Interestingly greater levels of interaction with other clubs was also identified in the needs analysis and what a great way to do it.Engaging members is a really important goal and in a moment we’ll be outlining just how we will supplement the current committee structure with project based activities to give the very best opportunities to get involved.Dr Ian Fairnie is currently heading up a small team to look at how we might establish a new orbit club for the CBD.Finally if we do all this right, membership will take care of itself and we should achieve a net growth of 10%
So what strategies are we going to employ?For club development: Firstly we need a dedicated PR team and we’ve got one headed up by Jeff leach who will definitely flaunt it!We need to understand that we need to be responsive to the needs of our changing membership and I have introduced a payment plan option for members to help spread the cost of membership.Traditionally we have placed all new members in a committee and whilst we will retain the committee structures, we’ll also be encouraging new members to align themselves with specific projects where they have a particular interest or skill to contribute.Approximately once every three months we’ll have directors reports so you can find out what is going on (I’ll find that pretty useful myself!)Introduce Tristan standing in for Rebecca ………
Key to our growth will be the way that our club is perceived – old and stodgy or new and vibrant?Fellowship is one of the areas that members wanted more of in the needs analysis and Tristan and his team will be working hard in that area to leverage that.On that note remember that there is n meeting on Friday 7th September but there will be a breakfast meeting on Thursday 6th September at the rotary club of Crawley at the University club.Introduce Tristan Campbell
Members of the RCP have in the past actively participated in business mentoring schemes such as shell livewire.In 2012/13 I want to encourage senior members of the club to offer their services as business mentors to younger members developing their own businesses or careers. Who knows there may even be some benefit to the mentors themselves as older members understand the impact of new technologies and social media.On that note I was sitting with Michael Chaney at a lecture on social media at the University club the other day and he said he was there because he knew nothing about it other than he felt intrinsically that it was critical to the future of NAB.I’d like to encourage new entrepreneurs to be guest speakers to talk on their experiences and lastly have at least half a dozen joint activities, be they fellowship or club meetings with other clubs such as the joint visit to the Curtin Business School trading floor.Introduce Ian Fairnie and or Simon May
The importance of on going education can not be underestimated, The quality of the guest speaker has in the past contributed hugely to attendance at club meetings and this will continue to be the case.Vocational visits will also play a part both from a fellowship perspective and educational one.
