🌿 Celebrating Growth and Leadership at the 2024 WVSU Extension Service Annual Retreat! 🌿 Our team gathered for an inspiring two-day retreat at Adventures on the Gorge to reflect on our mission and strategize for the future of WVSU Extension Service. Highlights included a workshop on adopting a “gardener’s mindset” toward leadership, fun “Extension 101 Jeopardy,” and practical sessions led by renowned speaker and author, Jones Loflin. His insights on cultivating growth using the “3P Approach” truly resonated, empowering us to plant seeds for impactful change in our communities. Through engaging discussions, team-building, and recognition of hard work, we left the retreat rejuvenated and ready to bring home more "blue ribbons" of success. Here’s to another year of dedication and service to our communities! 💚 #WVSU #LeadershipGrowth #ExtensionService
