Members of the National Junior Angus
Association (NJAA) came together for the Raising the Bar Officer
Training, April 25, in Reno, Nevada. The conference included 12
attendees plus six NJAA Board members from six states.
Raising the Bar is a highly
intensive leadership training for officers to build stronger
teams within their state junior associations and develop and
utilize regional relationships. Raising the Bar is open to five
state officers and two state advisors from each state in that
region, and is provided through financial support from the Angus
Foundation.
The workshops prepared and
conducted by the NJAA Board of Directors, included fundraising
and budgets and public speaking. The attendees also participated
in a team building and goal setting activities.
This is the third year for
Raising the Bar that allows officers and advisors from state
junior Angus associations to meet regionally.
The NJAA promotes the
involvement of young people in raising Angus cattle, while also
providing leadership and self-development opportunities for
nearly 7,000 active members nationwide. For more information
