Overview
The
objective of the Lions Mentoring Program is to help every member achieve the
goal of better serving his or her community. It does so through a program of
personal development that helps members realize the potential that their unique
skills and knowledge offer. The Mentoring program prepares them for leadership
in clubs, in the association and in their personal lives as well. For Lions
Clubs International, this means more hands and better service for the people
who need it most.
The
Lions Mentoring Program is completed in two parts, basic and advanced. Each
part is completed in two levels.
Basic
Mentoring
Level
One, The Responsibility of Being a Lion: The first level of the Basic Mentoring
Program is devoted to developing an understanding of who Lions are, their
vision of humanitarian service, the traditions, the organizational structure
and the responsibility of being a Lions club member. It should be a goal of
every club that all new Lions complete the level one in their first three
months of membership.
Level
Two, Relationships: The second level of the Basic Mentoring Program is for
developing relationships and organizational skills in preparation for
leadership at the club level. Level two should be completed in the new Lion’s
first six months of membership.
Advanced
Mentoring
The
goals of the Lions Advanced Mentoring Program are to see results and to provide
replication.
Level
One, Results: The emphasis of this level is upon developing accountability for
results by focusing on community projects and programs that provide useful and
needed humanitarian service. Completion of this level provides a stepping-stone
for accepting a leadership role within the club.
Level
Two, Replication: This level concentrates on the mentee’s role in developing
others for leadership in the association and for humanitarian service. It
ensures long-range growth and can serve as a basis for leadership within the
district structure. This phase can be augmented with additional training at
district level and at area forums.
