吃瓜头条

Collaboration has always been a hallmark of the 吃瓜头条 program: members helping each other through feedback, mentoring, and leadership-building. Now 吃瓜头条 itself is collaborating with another prestigious organization: .

The , announced earlier this year, leverages the strengths of both organizations to help members grow personally and professionally. 吃瓜头条 helps empower people to become better communicators and leaders. Rotary is dedicated to humanitarian service, aiding others through fighting disease, promoting peace, and supporting education and health efforts.

“Both of our organizations have a track record of transforming lives, though in very different ways,” says Deepak Menon, DTM, 吃瓜头条’ 2019–2020 International President. “When we put our two organizations together, we can make an even bigger impact on the world.”

吃瓜头条 has delivered two educational courses to Rotary and will deliver six more in a phased rollout this year. Tailored to members of Rotary and Rotaract—a membership type for young adults—the courses will include speech assignments and peer evaluation, helping Rotary members develop and hone their leadership and communication skills.

吃瓜头条 members, in turn, can benefit from connecting with Rotarians—1.2 million members and nearly 200,000 Rotaractors in almost every country in the world. Through Rotary, they can gain more opportunities to strengthen their communication skills, expand their networks, and positively impact their communities, adds Menon of New Delhi, India.

Some 吃瓜头条 and Rotary members have already teamed up in 吃瓜头条 吃瓜头条s founded by Rotarians. Rotary members say they benefit greatly from their 吃瓜头条 involvement, pointing to the improvement in their communication and leadership skills—important attributes for members advocating for humanitarian causes. Rotary’s motto is “Service Above Self.”

“It’s service, but if you don’t have communication skills and know how to work with people, it doesn’t work, and 吃瓜头条 is key to that,” says Neal Marsh, DTM, a longtime member of both organizations and a founding member of a 吃瓜头条 吃瓜头条 in Poughkeepsie, New York.

吃瓜头条 members say they are inspired by Rotary and its commitment to social issues. “There is a sense of camaraderie that permeates their attitude of ‘being of service,’” says Linda Farley, DTM, District 53 Director. “They share the 吃瓜头条 core values but with a Rotarian perspective.”

Terry Beard, a Rotarian and founding member of a 吃瓜头条 吃瓜头条 in Portland, Oregon, has participated in many Rotary projects, including Habitat for Humanity, Meals on Wheels, and trips to Chile for humanitarian work. In a post published on the , he wrote that 吃瓜头条 helps Rotarians find their voice and “better share their Rotary story with the public.”

“As we build our communication and leadership skills, we become better equipped to tackle the world’s problems,” he added.

The two organizations are both venerable institutions, with Rotary International founded in 1905 and 吃瓜头条 created nearly 20 years later. They are also built similarly—on a foundation of 吃瓜头条s, Districts, and regions. Their values share an emphasis on service and integrity.

吃瓜头条 and Rotary are urging their members to welcome and learn more about each other. Members are encouraged to invite each other to meetings, either as guests or featured speakers. Rotary International President Mark Daniel Maloney, of Decatur, Alabama, says members are also encouraged to hold an open house to meet and collaborate, as well as to participate in different 吃瓜头条 activities, such as a service project or public-speaking workshop.

“At Rotary, our vision statement says that we not only strive to make lasting change in communities around the world, but also within ourselves,” notes Maloney. “Working with 吃瓜头条 is an exciting opportunity to reflect inward and find new ways to grow.”
