LIONS DISTRICT N-1 GMT? GLT? WHAT THE HECK ARE THEY? LION DOUG SMALL LEADERSHIP CHAIR DISTRICT N-1
CHANGE …. NOT THE THEORY
IT’S ACTUALLY HAPPENING AND IT AFFECTS YOU
2008 LCI developed the Global Membership Team (GMT) with the purpose to; • Provide a worldwide, unified structure from top to bottom for pursuing membership growth. • Clearly place the responsibility for membership growth in each constitutional area, giving each more flexibility to meet their own needs and pursue their own opportunities. • Provide a way for best practices and membership success to be transferred from strong districts to those who need help.
2009 Constitutional Area leaders are chosen. 8-10 worldwide PIP Judge Brian Stevenson is our CA Leader Area Leaders are chosen. 39 worldwide PID Terry Graham is our Eastern Canada Area Leader
2010 GMT finally brought together the DG Teams (the District Governor and the two Vice District Governors) with the LCI’s senior leadership into an integrated, worldwide team focusing on membership development.
2010 The development of the GMT has brought about the need to revamp and replace MERLOW. So, why replace MERLOW? ….
2010 • It’s not clear if MERLOW is part of GMT and that needs to be clarified. • It’s clear that the DG Teams are responsible for membership development but they are not always part of MERLOW. The core membership duties are assigned to others and that needs to change.
2010 • Over the last 15 years, MERLOW has evolved to focus on separate activities and separate chairman roles. Coordination and accountability were weakened. A more accountable, streamlined executive management–style structure is needed.
2010 • LCI’s important growth and development programs do not always fit under one of the MERLOW chairs’ responsibilities. This has caused confusion on which function was responsible for specific LCI programs.
2010 • Most importantly, the Leadership function in MERLOW was sometimes lost in the mix; sometime relegated to a reactive role, to assist one of the other MERLOW team members when they needed training help. Additionally we lost focus on identifying and developing new leaders.
2011 – The Plan • Replace the MERLOW team by the end of the 2010-11 Lions year. • Expand the Global Membership Team down to the multiple and district level by creating MD and District GMT teams. • Move Leadership into its own parallel platform by creating a Global Leadership Team.
The Purpose of GMT…. • Provide a worldwide, unified structure from top to bottom for pursuing membership growth. • Clearly place the responsibility for membership growth in each constitutional area, giving each more flexibility to meet their own needs and pursue their own opportunities. • Provide a way for best practices and membership success to be transferred from strong districts to those who need help.
The Purpose of GLT…. • Provide a system and dedicated team, responsible for identifying and developing more qualified leaders from the Club level on up. • Enable customization of LCI’s leadership training to better meet local needs. • Improve and expand use of LCI’s many leadership training and development programs
2011 – July Together, GMT and GLT shall be highly interdependent teams working in tandem, interacting continuously and intensively at all levels. One can not succeed without the other.
