Success StoryLeading and learning.



Leading and learning.

Author: Paula Jerrell

Planning Unit: Ballard County CES

Major Program: Staff Development

Plan of Work: Developing Human Capitol

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

I have been involved in a professional development leadership program called ESP LEADS, through Epsilon Sigma Phi. We have learned about leadership styles, group development, team building and so much more.  We have had meetings across the state learning about extension partnerships and efforts going on in our state that have involved extension leaders. It was a two year program with a core planning committee of which i was a part.  I have now been peer nominated to be the chairperson of the second cohort.  We have 5 lessons scheduled over the course of two years with a graduation in March of 2024. I am excited to be part of this effort for extension professionals to build their leadership capacity and to work toward their career ladder and other professional goals.
