Volunteering for a leadership position can be a rewarding experience that not only benefits you, but our entire physical therapy community.
When you raise your hand to volunteer, you are giving yourself the opportunity to expand your professional network and make valuable connections with like-minded individuals in this incredible profession - connections that can lead to new job opportunities, partnerships, and collaborations.
It also allows you to develop leadership skills and gain experience in areas that you may not have had the chance to explore in your current role.
