911der Women Academy - Finding Your Inner Leader
There is a leader in all of us. Regardless of our age, our title, or our current position. But sometimes it's hard to develop the skills to become a better leader when our jobs are so intense, the hours are long, and the rest is rare. Sometimes we are thrown into leadership roles without training or tools to utilize to be successful. In order to bring that leader out, we need to continue to learn new techniques, hear other stories, and develop those skills to make a difference in 911.
