Re: Being a Good team leader!

It's easy to judge yourself a poor leader because the teams you are working with aren't performing like top tier teams(My FLL teams had two or three sporadically working programs and scores of 62, 19 and 20 points in their matches and were constantly screaming at each other).
But remember: in FIRST it's not just about where you finish in the standings but the intangible of inspiration where there is no true or immediate forum of measurement. That you had brought the means of FIRST and the possiblilty of it's effects into these childrens lives is already a great accomplishment. So to label yourself as a failure is really doing yourself a brutal disservice.
