Leadership Points

  • Leadership Points

    Leadership Points are to make sure that all members are getting involved in the leadership as well as the service.

    By planning the events, the members take initiative, and the community service belongs to the members, not only the officers. They also fall under the Pillar of Leadership. (To learn more about the pillars, go to the NHS National Website.)
