Last weekend, I had a great experience to be the Saturday luncheon speaker to the Rotary President Elects Training Seminar in Atlanta.
To me- the most inspiring part was the dedication and longevity of all of those in attendance.
Over 400 people came together throughout Georgia and Florida to learn from each other as many of them were preparing to become the new Presidents of their local club.
Besides already being very successful entrepreneurs in their own businesses, all of these people found the time and made the time to truly live for the greater good of helping and learning from each other and to find ways to give back.
When I was asked to speak to this esteemed group on " Attracting New Members Through Networking"–it gave me reason to pause– these were ALL Master Networkers already!
Discussing the basics and remembering the reason each one of us joined this wonderful organization and creating a process and spreading the word throughout our clubs made the presentation flow.
I always walk away the lucky one– meeting, connecting and learning from such a terrific and wonderful group of people. I am very proud to carry my Rotary card and it has opened doors for me in over 15 countries since I have been a member.
Check out your local club in your community– you will be very happy you did and you will make a difference.
