Welcome to Tuesday Training Podcast…a conversation and collaboration between Army National Guard Recruiters.  

This week, because of your efforts, lives will be changed, legacies will be started and generations will be impacted.  What you do matters…..you make a difference.

HOW MANY PEOPLE DID YOU ASK TO JOIN THE NATIONAL GUARD LAST WEEK?

Check on Learning:

According to the NG Pam 601-1 most high-quality leads come from high school presentations.  What is your goal – number of presentations? Number of new classrooms/teacher? Number of junior and seniors? What is your specific plan for high school presentations in September and October?  

How do you apply “ -Utilize meaningful communication among involved parties to inquire, acknowledge, and advocate while demonstrating active listening and understanding while shaping perceptions and emotions of all parties” to recruiting?

August

As a best business practice, you should contact 25 percent of your senior contacts, 30 percent of your HS graduates and 14 percent of your junior contacts by 31 August. The objective of these contacts is to obtain appointments.  Determine and finalize all SASVAB scheduling in all assigned schools. Assist school officials in making arrangements for scheduling the ASVAB Interpretations following the release of scores. Contact the student government and set up a meeting to discuss what the ARNG and you can do to assist them in the upcoming school year (i.e. give speech/presentation, field trips, etc.). Contact the head football coach and volunteer to assist in leading calisthenics or calling cadence during team runs. Contact enlistees currently in HS and utilize them to the fullest extent. Ensure they understand the “Stripes for Buddies” program and energize them to solicit interest in the ARNG.  Remember that the school faculty is working and it is often hectic in preparation for classes to start. Always schedule an appointment prior to going to the HS to prevent a strained relationship with the faculty.

6-67. Living by the Army Values and the Warrior Ethos best displays character and leading by example. It means putting the organization and subordinates above personal self-interest, career, and comfort. For the Army leader, it requires putting the lives of others above a personal desire for self-preservation.  Leading with Confidence in Adverse Conditions

6-68. A leader who projects confidence is an inspiration to followers. Subordinates will follow leaders who are comfortable with their own abilities and will question the leader who shows doubt.

6-69. Displaying confidence and composure when things are not going well can be a challenge for anyone, but is important for the leader to lead others through a grave situation. Confidence is a key component of leader presence. A leader who shows hesitation in the face of setbacks can trigger a chain reaction among others. A leader who is over-confident in difficult situ...
