Adult Leader Training

Training builds the confidence of leaders, which in turn builds the confidence of unit members in their leaders. This helps ensure success. It increases the tenure of leaders because they derive greater satisfaction from their job. And it gives leaders the chance to become acquainted with other leaders.
