Leadership Development Adults
Sponsored by Georgia Power and Living Life On Target
|
|
The adults took to the books this past session with leadership trainers Diane Vinyard and Heather Casey. They dove deeper into becoming a better leader, and they enjoyed some friendly competition in a favorite game from previous leadership classes. Since I've been here no one has ever won the game, and Heather Casey said that over her years conducting it, she has had very few teams to win. We now have a winning team!
Congratulations, Lauren, Robby, Natalie, Paul and Lewis!!
