On Leadership
Leadership means setting a vision that others want to follow.  Leadership is helping others to reach their full potential.

Advice for girls
Women and girls throughout history have blazed trails to make a meaningful difference in the world as a result of their ideas, intelligence, and passion. The best way to develop leadership skills is by getting involved in projects that provide opportunities to take responsibility, make decisions, and collaborate with your peers and other experienced women. Involvement in community projects also helps you discover your individual strengths and learn from others who may see different strengths in you– that you may not have considered previously.  Taking a risk to get involved in new projects also builds your knowledge and self-confidence in being able to learn new skills quickly.
