Under these plans, first the Club must induct new members who will be with the club for a long time. As far as possible the officers of the club should be elected well in advance. Newer Rotarians can start as Editor, Joint Secretary, Sergeant-at-Arms, Chairman of various committees. Senior officers should serve as Club Service Director, Community Service Director and Club Secretary compulsorily (not necessarily in the same order) before becoming President Elect. This will ensure that the incoming President will have all the required knowledge for taking the club together forward and the club will not have any transition problem. This will help the President to plan for his term, implement his plan and follow through on his plans as Immediate Past President. Same thing can be applied at District level as well.

Now a days we find in many Clubs , one individual Past President or Senior Member or a Junior Member with clout playing Groupism and keep some followers always for whatever with him, put always his own Group members in the Presidentship, in the Board and in the Trust if any, for continuous period of 5 to 10 years and keep the Rule in Proxy . In such cases the Principles of Rotary is Lost.Four way Test is failed . But these people always talk about Four way Test . The Transition process is failed.The Leadership succession is failed. Hence always , in club level proper orientation of Rotary Principles should be made .The importance of each Avenues of service should be discussed in the club. Awareness should be made on these principles .Then Transition planning can be made well .

Their needs to be duties for all board members in the club. They all need to serve as chairs of each avenue of service, then oversee the others in their areas of service.
