  1. Community Service ProgrammeA Paradigm Shift In the early days Y’s Men clubs mainly supported projects chosen by the YMCA. While this practice continues under the partnership principles the Forward Plan requires clubs to engage directly with communities. This requirement of Community service under the Forward Plan is a paradigm shift.

  2. What is a Paradigm • Theory, model, belief system, methodology, value, dogma, habit, pattern or conventional wisdom. • Shared set of assumptions. • Framework of thought. • Basic way of perceiving, thinking, valuing and doing associated with a particular vision.

  3. What is a Paradigm Shift? • A move from one way of looking at something to a new way of looking at it. • A move to a new mindset, a new attitude, a new way of thinking. • When the rules change then part of our world changes. • Paradigm shifts are important because most significant changes are driven by a shift in paradigms.

  4. Community Service - Ground Zero When a Paradigm Shifts, Every One Goes ‘Back to Zero’

  5. Community Service – The Big Question • Is your club prepared to embrace a paradigm shift by engaging directly with communities in order ‘To build a common identity and improve the image of Y's Men International within the communities we live in?’ • Is your club prepared to make Community Service the core of YMI?
