Inspire Your Rotary Members to
Service Driven Leadership


Donald Clinebell has been a Rotarian for over 30 years, and had tremendous impact with Rotary on both a local and national level. He has led Leadership and Visioning Retreats and delivered many keynote addresses throughout his time with the Club.

Donald is in great demand as a Rotary speaker, trainer and coach. He is a frequent keynote speaker and trainer at Presidents Elect Training Seminars (PETS), at Rotary District Conferences, joint Rotary Club events and joint Rotary District events.

For 15 years (from 1997 through 2012), Donald spoke and taught at Rotary International’s annual SoCal-Nevada (now Southwest) PETS. During that time, Donald helped train more than 7,500 incoming Rotary Presidents. His work at PETS was consistently received with fantastic praise and evaluations. Throughout his tenure at SoCal PETS, he was the highest rated Presenter/Trainer. In Feb. 2022, Donald delivered to rave reviews the Friday night Keynote Address at Southwest PETS, titled The Service Driven President, at Southwest PETS.

Donald Clinebell has the passion, energy and expertise to help your club dive into service-driven living.

Many Rotary and other service Clubs have taken advantage of a Saturday morning Service Driven Leadership & Visioning retreat, customized for each individual club, with Donald spending an entire morning with the Club personally (not an associate or hired speaker or facilitator). You will engage in visioning, goal setting, and drafting of specific Action Items with “dates complete” with Donald’s wise guidance.

Each Rotary member who attends will receive a FREE copy of  The Service Driven Leader Rotary Supplement – which is intended for use with Donald’s latest book, The Service Driven Leader.

Once all of your members understand the SEVEN keys to Service Driven Leadership, they will be able to accelerate performance, move the bottom line of success forward and ensure enduring success, for your Club and in their businesses.
