McKinsey Consulting has published timely data on why employees quit their jobs.

This is our opportunity to convert more volunteers into members, and partner with employers to supplement their employee value proposition, all while engaging and retaining our more experienced members. Discover:
  • How our vocational advantage can help convert volunteer participants into Rotary members
  • Why clubs should partner with employers to supplement their employee value proposition and create a membership pipeline
  • How this will help engage and retain existing, more experienced Rotarians
 
The gap that Rotary membership addresses
McKinsey has published timely data on why employees quit their jobs. Significantly, 41% attributed their opting out to “Lack of career development and advancement”, 34% to “Uncaring and uninspiring leaders”, and 31% to “Lack of meaningful work”.
 
Our vocational advantage is a compelling reason to become a Rotary member
While Rotary clubs are renowned for delivering vocational services to members of their community, this same expertise is routinely utilized in the nurturing of  younger Rotary members to fulfil club succession planning and develop the next generation of community leaders. Interviews with Rotary members aged 30-45 consistently report three practical benefits of Rotary membership that influence their decision to keep volunteering and renewing their membership with Rotary over other community organisations:
  1. Not-for-profit board experience in a supportive environment
  2. Mentorship by more experienced Rotary members
  3. Online self-guided development resources such as Rotary Learning Center and growmyclub.org
