Fire leaders are committed to building a high level of competence in team members. Their satisfaction depends on it as does the future of the organization. Some of today's team members are the leaders of tomorrow; it is the leader's responsibility to mentor and help them cultivate the right tools and skills that they will need to face the challenges of the future.(Leading in the Wildland Fire Service, p. 40.)
One of those tools is the Professional Reading Program. Justin Vernon has created a discussion guide for each of the showcased books for 2016.
