Collaboration and partnerships are aspects of leading through relationships.
Be sure to check out the new module developed by WFSTAR personnel for the Annual Fireline Safety Refresher.
This module takes a look at the partnership that both the Boise Bicycle Project and the McCall Smokejumpers have in place. These organizations and partnerships are successful because they are collaborative in nature.
Discussion Points:
- Does your crew or organization have a partnership in place? (Examples – volunteer fire departments, search and rescue, Fish and Game, timber/recreation shop, etc.)
- What type of training is in place for this partnership? What are the benefits of having training in place?
- What are the success stories from your partnership?
- If you don’t have a partnership in place, can you now think of some that could be implemented? What comes to mind?
- Can you think of unsuccessful experiences that could have been avoided if there was a collaborative program in place?
- What wildland fire skills were applied that help build a successful organization?
