FRPA Announces Joe Abrahams Academy for Leadership Excellence in Parks and Recreation
This intensive training experience is intended for individuals seeking career advancement from the managerial level to a visionary, leadership role within the parks and recreation profession. The program will require advance reading and assignments, attendance at all sessions, and post-session assignments to be completed in group discussion.
The Academy will go beyond a traditional educational session. It will be an opportunity for you to explore and develop your leadership ability, and to then create a personal leadership advancement plan for yourself. It isn’t for the weak at heart. Educational offerings will force personal introspection, group interactivity, and individual assessment.
Remember the first time you visited a high altitude. Overcome with a slight feeling of dizziness, maybe a bit blurred vision, thinking you would never be able to drink enough fluids? This experience will re-create that feeling - one hundred fold. When you land at the conclusion of the experience you will be thrilled with the journey and won't want to wait until you can begin again!
