The ultimate purpose of leading in the wildland fire service is to protect life, property, and natural resources.
Leading here requires that we manage uncertainty and events that are not within our control. A framework to understand this leadership environment is critical to enable fire leaders to make effective decisions and communicate those decisions in dynamic situations.
The decision to lead and be successful within this framework requires an avid commitment to self-development.
