My year as our Rotary club president ends this week.
It has been a great year for our club.
Many leadership lessons were learned.
We raised a lot of money for community causes.
We increased membership almost 25%.
And most important, we had a lot of fun together.
Here are three leadership lessons from this.
1. Have fun in whatever you do.
When it’s fun, it never seems like work.
We worked hard and accomplished a lot.
But it never seemed like work - more like play.
2. Surround yourself with fun people.
Visitors always tell me what a good time they had.
“Do you have this much fun every Friday?” they ask.
Yes, we do. Every Friday. I wouldn’t miss a meeting.
3. Fun people are dependable people.
You can count on them. They never let you down.
Be dependable yourself. Don’t let them down.
Whatever they need of you, do it with joy.
Serving others is one of our greatest privileges.
It brings us that much closer to our Creator.
“Lead People, Manage Things” tells how to do this.
