of you. During this time together we have made progress
in a number of areas, but there is still much work left
to be done. Thanks to each of you for your friendship,
your leadership and your commitment to children. “
Parker assumed duties as Kiwanis International’s
chief executive officer in August 2006. He was
responsible for providing leadership and direction to
the board, staff and volunteers for the global
organization of both adult and youth members totaling
more than 600,000.
During his tenure, Parker instituted Project ROI
(return on investment), an initiative that evaluated
every program and expense within the organization, to
minimize expense in any area that did not benefit the
member, while at the same time freeing up resources for
investment in programs that did. Kiwanis International
sits in good financial shape today because of this
initiative. Funds from Project ROI were immediately
redirected towards new growth programs, marketing and
branding initiatives and technology.
As a change agent, he began working on Kiwanis Next,
an opportunity to create a Kiwanis that would be more
inclusive, diverse and relevant within today’s fast
changing society while upholding respect for our great
history. He oversaw the creation of three internal staff
teams: Global Marketing, Global Impact and Global
Operations, meant to create cross-functional
collaboration on global member issues related to all
clubs.
Communications was a key component to Parker’s
organizational strategy. He created a periodical update
to Kiwanis leaders called the Kiwanis Insider, which
kept over 80,000 volunteer leaders up to date on Kiwanis
issues. He also created a leadership web blog and
started a weekly conference call with Kiwanis
International board officers.
An accomplished speaker and trainer, Parker has
extensive experience presenting in the United States and
abroad. Throughout his career, he has worked directly
with some of America’s most dynamic business leaders,
CEOs and nonprofit leaders; and is a highly sought after
public speaker. |

Kiwanis International CEO Steps Down
Kiwanis International CEO, Rob Parker, announced on
October 5th his decision to step down
effective October 16, 2009 in a letter to the Kiwanis
family.
“Those of you who know me well will not be surprised
that I am totally excited about what the future might
bring for Stephanie and our family,” said Parker. “This
change will allow me to accelerate my graduate studies,
while continuing to write and speak on the value and
importance of leadership. My time at Kiwanis has helped
fuel my passion for a more global approach to
leadership, and I look forward to the public speaking
opportunities that lie ahead both in the United States
and internationally.”
Parker continued, “Over the past three years, I have
been blessed to work with some amazing volunteers and
staff members. Your passion and love for others has
inspired me so
significantly that I will certainly
smile every time
