I worked all summer putting together a training for our Association Building Leaders (ABLs). It was a labor of love mixed with a lot of stress. The training was today and I think it went well. Almost everyone was there and those that weren’t let me know ahead of time that they couldn’t make it. All the technology worked, we had plenty of food (remind me of that next year), and we had some really good conversations. I’m so honored to get to be in this leadership position, and work with such amazing people. But I’m not going to lie, it gets heavy sometimes and that came through today. What a great group of people to let me get vulnerable and talk/cry about it and not make it weird. I felt very supported and safe and I hope they do too. ❤️
Thank you to all of the ABLs and all of the Board members for supporting me as a President as well as putting in the work to make our union stronger.
All for one and one for all ❤️
Be sure to find your building rep this week and thank them for coming to a training, outside of contract time, to learn how to get you all of the union information. The union wouldn’t function without our ABLs.
