Leadership

2023-2024
Leadership Committee

The purpose of the Leadership Committee is to better equip members to serve in leadership positions with confidence and skill.

What is leadership? It is comprised of several essential qualities that are not related to title or position. Leadership includes, among other key components, organizational knowledge, commitment to the organization’s mission and purpose, enthusiasm, integrity, honesty, strong communication skills, self-development, openness to innovative ideas, the ability to collaborate, and a vision for everyone’s success.

The Department of Virginia leadership team is committed to providing you with and guiding you to the resources necessary to continue to develop your own leadership through a variety of opportunities to improve skills from the Department and the National organization.
