M e s s a g e f r o m t h e P r e s i d e n t We each have different strengths and now is the time to identify those talents and put them to work for everyone. We need everyday heroes whose contributions will lift our spirits and improve all Metis lives. I am working on a program to develop the leadership skills in the next generation. Some of us have given our adult lives to the betterment of our people. Now is the time to prepare the people who will take our places. In the corporate world, this is called succession planning. It is done to ensure the continued success of the corporation. We need to so that for ourselves. I will be proposing a unique training program to elevate the young people for whom being Metis is more than a birthmark, it is a calling. Stay tuned for news on this front. If you know of someone who would take up this challenge, please let me know.
Not every goose knows which way to migrate. But they each take a turn and when it is their time to lead, they get to make those hard decisions. Some will be satisfied to follow. But when they fly, they fly together. And they arrive successfully at their destination. It is less important who turned left at the border as long as the goal is achieved without leaving any goose behind. And as I close out my message for this edition of The Messenger, I want to again express my, and my family’s deepest sympathies to those in our community who have lost loved ones in recent months to COVID or other circumstances. This is a difficult time for so many in our community and our prayers are with you. - Herb Lehr -
