Leaders and potential leaders receive training from GFWC at many levels of the Federation. A firm foundation of skills and knowledge enables competent and committed leaders to move the Federation purposefully into the future. In September 2006, the first Incoming Leaders Training Seminar convened for leaders who will serve in the 2008-2010 administration as region presidents, state presidents, and state Junior directors. A second ILTS session was held in June 2007 prior to the opening of the GFWC Annual International Convention.
ILTS focuses on introducing members to the resources available to them from GFWC. The program includes in-depth information about GFWC training, program, and collateral materials; departmental resources and areas of staff expertise; and expert presentations on speech writing, organization, conducting efficient meetings, public relations and communications techniques; and conflict resolution.
