Competent Leadership

Learn to lead with practical practice
Members working in the leadership track learn and practice leadership skills by serving in club roles. The competent leadership (CL) manual is the core of the leadership track. It features ten projects, which you complete while assuming various roles. An evaluator will give you feedback on each project, helping you to improve. When you complete the manual, you are eligible for CL recognition. Complete the CL application in the manual and ask the vice president education to submit it online to World Headquarters. You will receive a CL certificate and, if you wish, World Headquarters will send your employer a letter about your accomplishment.

Advanced Leader Program
After earning CL recognition you may further refine your leadership skills by working in the advanced leader program. Members in this program are eligible for advanced leader bronze (ALB) and advanced leader silver (ALS) recognition.

At first glance the CL manual can be formidable.  This is why we at SRTM have created a few tools to make it easier to follow.   Use the CL Made Easy summary guide to get a condensed version of the CL manual listed out in bullet format for quicker understanding of each CL project.  Use the CL progress chart for a simple overview of the CL projects and the modules needed to complete each project.  Also use it to track your progress.
