On Saturday, September 30th we will be holding Visioning Facilitator Training. Registration and continental breakfast start at 7:30am, and the class will start promptly at 8:00am and end no later than noon. It will be held at the MIG Corporation located at 1 Acton Place in Acton, MA. We ask that you please register in advance for the training so we can plan accordingly for the materials and hand-outs – the cost to attend is $10.
This training is open to all Rotarians and we hope many of the current facilitator team will join in this training as a refresher and to meet and welcome new trainer candidates.
Visioning is a process that helps clubs by providing a vision for the future of the club and the beginnings of a written plan that promotes consensus, consistency and continuity. It allows club members the opportunity to dream about what their club could become and helps to renew everyone’s commitment to focus on what they can do to make the club even better than it already is.
Clubs that have completed a Visioning have found the process to be extremely beneficial for giving every member a voice in where the club is heading and what members believe is most important to the club. Several clubs are now scheduling to do Visioning a second time to refresh the planning that was done 3 or more years ago. It’s a great way to build consensus and a team approach to a club’s operations.
Many clubs have expressed interest in having Visioning done for their club, and therefore we need to grow and are looking for more people to join the Facilitation team. Training will include a brief overview of Visioning and the process that we use with the clubs and a breakdown of the team members and the various roles in each session. As a member of the Team, you will have the opportunity to travel to various clubs in the district who want to go through the visioning process; and you can pick which session is convenient for you as you do not have to attend all of them.
Hope to see you there!
