For example: One of the best ways to help your girl gain leadership skills is by modeling them for her yourself as a troop volunteer. Offer to coordinate the carpool schedule, help with snacks, chaperone a trip, or even to lead a particular badge activity during a meeting. Watching you take on a leadership role—and becoming a role model to the other girls in the troop!—will motivate her to take the lead, too.
Getting involved gives you and your girl something special that you’re part of together, which in our busy lives, is worth its weight in gold.
