Leadership Development
Leadership Development:
A core tenant of Crew 30 ethos is personal development and a primary component of that is both followership and leadership development. Whether an individual spends only one season as a crew member, or makes a career in fire, both Leadership and Followership must be developed to bring out an individual's full potential in whatever career field they choose. Wildland fire is an exceptional setting in which to develop those skills, from leading small groups, to pushing personal physical limits, Crew 30 is committed to exposing individuals to different opportunities for development.
