助理總監 Assistant Governor 職稱與座位安排
助理總監AG職務，是地區執行地區領導計畫DLP必設的職務。
參照國際扶輪禮儀，在地區階層，介紹排序是 地區總監DG-前總監PDG-助理總監AG。
參照Rotary COP，助理總監AG由地區總監DG就該分區適任的前社長群中指派。

問A：
Rotary COP及其Protocol禮儀規範中，只有助理總監AG，並無 地區助理總監及分區助理總監 等職稱，如何區分?
Ans:
參照Rotary COP 17.030.1規範，助理總監AG本應由地區總監DG指派。
但台灣少數地區，如RI D3460，因當年沿襲地區總監代表DGR慣例，由分區各社按照創社年資先後順序，依序由該分區各社之前社長PP自行推舉產生。
此種慣例，雖然不符合COP，但也沒有違反其規範。故歷屆DG，只要沒有紛爭產生，也就順其自然。
然而此舉，有其潛在陋病：當該分區產出的AG人選無法與DG密切配合時，則困擾重重易致誤事。
此時，DG常會另行指派其他適格社友為AG，從旁協助甚或取代。
久之，演變成分區各社輪流推舉者為分區助理總監，地區總監DG直接指派者為地區助理總監。
地區助理總監另有重要任務：即直接受命於地區總監，得全權來執行特定方案。但地區助理總監無直屬責任輔導的扶輪社，因而DG常會另行規劃分區由其負責督促。
分區助理總監通常直接輔導3-5個扶輪社，這是RI規畫的建議原則。
同時，請切記，地區內要如何規劃分區，是由該年度地區總監全權處理，RI不會過問，該地區PDG只能建議而無權置喙。

問B：
正式會議如公訪、授證等，現在很多社都會將所謂地區助理總監排在總監之後，而在PDG之前。這是正確嗎？ 但protocol不是如此寫的。
Ans:
公訪時，分區助總有職責，可坐在PDG前。
授證時，若助總不代表DG，亦不上台致辭，則不宜排座在PDG前。
另，授證典禮，若座位不足，無兼任地區職務的PDG亦不宜在主桌。

問C：
是否地區助理總監都要坐main table？ 記得以前只排分區助理總監才坐上面，地區助理總監就坐下面貴賓桌与地區團隊一起的？ (Today)
Ans:
助理總監職務要項的另一定義：要有專屬責任服務的扶輪社。
地區助理總監則類似地區總監的專案助理，本身並無直接負責的扶輪社。
故，在公訪、授證時之主桌列上，應安排該社直屬的分區助理總監座位。
至於地區助理總監，若分區助理總監未到場，可取代分區助理總監座位。
介紹 助理總監 層次時，該社直屬分區助理總監優先介紹，其次為地區助理總監，再次為其它分區助理總監。
當然，在總體介紹時，在地區言：當然是地區總監DG為最優先，緊接依序是前總監PDG、地區總監當選人DGE、地區總監提名人DGN，再次為助理總監。這是RI禮儀規範。 (Doctor 2017/09/04)
