Back To Top Recognition 11. It may be a simple statement of appreciation or a formal recognition of a larger job which has been completed. Recognition may be conveyed by a smile, a hand clasp, a card, a note from 4-H members, a letter, a cup of coffee, a flower, a party, a banner, a pin or a trophy. Recognition should be a part of each meeting. A person who assumes a leadership role will develop confidence and leadership skills.
Personal growth is part of the team process.
A person can be placed in an apprentice role to learn skills which are desired. When skills have been practiced and mastered, that person can be given a more responsible leadership role. Experienced and skilled volunteer leaders can teach new leaders coming into the 4-H system. The organizational leader is responsible for managing the process by which volunteer leaders are helped to become members of the 4-H team. Each club will use the parts of this process which meet the needs of that club.
