The Rotary Leadership Institute (RLI) is a series of fast-paced, interactive, one-day courses offered to refine a Rotarian's leadership skills and increase their base of knowledge in Rotary.

Courses are fun, topical, interactive, and geared toward busy business and professional persons who want to be more effective leaders in their vocation and club and more knowledgeable Rotarians.

Rotary Clubs are encouraged to select at least two candidates for RLI annually. Students return to their club with enthusiasm, new contacts, fresh ideas, an increased understanding of their potential as Rotarians, and valuable skills impacting their potential leadership in the club.

Zones 29 & 30 RLI serves Rotary Clubs in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Alabama, and Mississippi. Locations and Dates for upcoming RLI Heart of America events are conveniently planned throughout the service area on various dates throughout the year. Rotarians are encouraged to attend RLI events at any location.

Knowledge is of two kinds: We know a subject ourselves, or we know where we can find information on it.
