Leadership

 

GFWC produces a Leadership Advancement Guide for clubs that contains valuable information, including practical ideas and resources to assist clubs in developing leadership skills in their members. GFWC Florida holds annual leadership development training for its future leaders.

Bottom-up or top-down, leadership involves taking risks, being innovative, and promoting new directions. While some may talk about being born leaders, most of us can learn how to be a strong leader. Club, district, state, and national volunteers can become leaders by developing a clear and compelling vision for what one wants to become; establishing attainable goals; providing – and being provided – with encouragement and appreciation; behaving with an entrepreneurial spirit; and pursuing training and education.
