Chapter leaders grow and transfer new skills back to the workplace The organization more fully develops its bench strength and people become ready to handle new duties and responsibilities when the need arises.

27. NMA and YOU -- It’s all about developing leaders and helping them stay “engaged” and “career resilient”… and recognizing that NMA can be your partner in that endeavor.
