4. Running meetings effectively

4.7. AG's visits

Get to know your Assistant Governor. They are there to support you and your club and keep you in touch with what is happening at District level and Rotary International. Your club is autonomous but is also part of the wonderful Rotary organisation.

  • Your Assistant Governor should visit at least 4 times in the Rotary year. You may like to invite them to a Board meeting so they can get an idea of your programs/projects
  • Invite them to present on what is happening at District level and any major events in Rotary International.
  • When they attend  you should fund their meal if the meeting is a dinner/lunch/breakfast meeting.
  • Make them feel welcome. They are there to support you and can often add an independent point of view in difficult situations.
  • Include your AG in the meeting and always provide them with an opportunity to address the meeting.
