* Successful leaders are prepared to set out in new directions to find new opportunities and different ways to
take things forward.
* To begin with your people, Build a shared vision, then together determine what destination success should mean.
* Leaders find the new and look to the future. They dont rest in the past.
* Leaders look for differences and opportunities, rather than necessarily following the well-trodden path.
So, we all worked very hard to lead the humanity and what I only can say is we succeeded in that journey. But to rip the fruits
from seeds we planted, all my Leos have to stay strong and work with each other to rip more fruits at the end.
I know you are the Best and lets march forward as a team to show the world WHO WE ARE!
I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Your Friend,
Leo Pramod Wimalatunga

Work SMART not HARD
Do what you love and love what you do is the simple motive of my life. As the chairperson of one
of the historic talent shows of Leo District 306 A2, I am eternally grateful to hold the key position of this
great show. I believe that, my passion towards music, dancing and drama inspired me to accept
the challenge of organizing EL TALENTO15. It was wonderful Leadership Experience Opportunity
for me.Fore mostly I need to convey my heartiest gratitude to the District President Leo Pramod
Wimalathunga for giving me this enormous opportunity.
The main endeavor of organizing the show was to recognize
hidden talents of Leos and to fulfill the responsibility towards
the society and its wellbeing. Therefore this was organized
to raise funds for the District Project ONE RUPEE ONE CHILD
which is a scholarship program for less fortunate children
across the island.
I consider if you want to be successful in the modern world
people have to be Smart and also Multi-potentialised
while being Multi- Talented, which means humans need to
understand their capacity in terms of being a multi skilled
person. Proficiency in Aesthetic and Sports are vital as well
as education. It offers a person a well balanced life and
balanced life is a key factor of being success. Leos are
talented set of young individuals and they need continuous
improvement for their competencies. El talento15 was
an attempt to recognize the hidden talents of Leos in
music, singing, dancing and drama and it is awakened their
aesthetic sense of mind.
There were many Leos behind the success of the show.it is not
EL TALENTO means The Talent in Spanish and the show was an individual achievement. It is the glory of the
themed accordingly. I believe it has become a memorable TOGETHER EVERYONE ACHIEVE MORE!

How do you feel about volunteering for community
service?
It has truly made a positive impact on my life. I gained
self esteem and confidence in myself. Knowing that you
can help someone that you don't know and impact
their lives in a positive manner makes a wonderful
heartwarming experience. I have learned so much from
the experience; it opened my eyes to the plight of others
and made me more responsible towards community
and family.
You were a Club President and have had a wide range
of experience in the Leo Movement, How would you
manage your personal life while giving your best to your
District?
LEO helps you gain leadership qualities like multi tasking,
management skills, Human resource management
etc. With time I certainly developed these skills in me
to maintain good balance between my personal life
andLeoism. Of course you have to take an extra mile
to pursue your passion. It gives you happiness and not
stress.
Where do you think LEO movement is, among the other
movement?
I indulged myself into the world of Leoism where I got
the opportunities to realize the hidden talents within
me which have given me immense confidence.During
the 10 years of Leoism I have gained a lot and made
many friends across the world. Today I am known for
my marketing skills all over Leos and Lions of Multiple
323, the talent which I never knew about myself. It
improved my interpersonal and people management
skills which in turn helped me to be successful in
a business at the age of 25.I got the opportunity to
spread the smile and help others to grow in their life.
I Got to learn different things at different posts which
helped me in my personal life and also to serve better
in community.

Be A FORERUNNER
Be a FORERUNNER, a workshop organized by Leo Clubs of Polgasowita, Godigamuwa &
Rattanapitiya on 28th of November 2015 to help make our own leos emerge as flexible
personalities in the society. The project was held at Camilla School, Mattegoda with a
participation of around 22 leos and most of them were newly inducted individuals.
In recent times Leos tend to move apart from this interesting movement as they become
helpless when it comes to proper management of their life. Seeing this as a vulnerability to
both themselves and leo movement, Be a FORERUNNER was organized to let them gain
some valuable knowledge on how to lead a balanced lifestyle all by correctly engaging in
their academic activities and career routine. The Chief Guest of the occasion was Multiple
District President of Leo Multiple District 306, Leo Dumindu Jayakody and Past District President
Leo Kaneel Maddumage participated as our next main speaker of the occasion and both
of them conducted two useful sessions for our leos with exciting and interesting topics and
presentations which lead the audience to get an understanding on how they managed their
lifestyles while being engaged in leoism.
As our Guest Speakers, the founder of H3 Foundation-Hearts & Hands of Humanity
organization Mr. Sachinda Dulanjaya graced the event. He is also a Motivational Speaker,
Leadership Trainer, Young Social Worker & a Counsellor in profession. He emphasized our
leos on how to follow their dreams and make them blossom in the end if they follow the
reality with a proper vision. Also Mr. Lakshan Perera, Mr. Nilan Sajith Perera graced the event
from the same organization as our other guest speakers and they conducted their sessions
on how to be motivated to the mark you expect your life to be while being engaged in such
a useful movement which is leoism.
There were some musical sessions which they carried out which aided the leos to free up their
mindsets from any of the burdens they carried inside their minds.
The event was graced by the Imm.Past District President of Leo Dsitrict 306A2 Leo Chandima
Vithanage, District Vice President of Leo District 306A2, Leo Kesari Seneviratne MJF and Multiple
District 306 Vice President Leo Rajitha Abeygunasekara providing us the courage to enrich our
leos better.
