Second eta's posta~ paid at :1e.. Yorl\ Cit) and additional mailing ornccs I President's Message Leading tomorrow's leaders, the subject of this special issue, embodies one of Juliette Low's strongest convictions. The time to raise girls' sights, to help them envision all the marvelous opportunities ahead, she believed. is when they are very young-before self-limiting stereotypes can take hold. Dr. Ken­ J neth Hoyt, of the U.S. Department of Education v.:armly attests to our career education materials' success: 'Trom Dreams to Reality, .. he wrote us, "has made a greater contribution to the reduction of se.'\·stereotyping as a deter· rent to freedom of career choice for girls and v.omen than any other single publication!" High praise like that, commendations from other top career education specialists, and the success of our Career Education in Schools project are all highly encouraging. We know that most of our young Girl Scouts are expecting to hold paid jobs during at least part of their lives, so it is vitally important that the adults In their lives help them to explore the world of work realistically and earl). Girls need to consider carefully what aptitudes, skills, and early training they will need, if the) are going to find in their chosen work the same degree of satisfaction they rind in their families and in com· munity service. You and I know that volunteer service adds an important dimension to our lives. The personal enrichment we find in Girl Scouting often means, as I've heard many volunteers say, that we get e\ en more than we give-in inner The time to satisfaction and in other, quite concrete ""avs. For example, many of the skills we acquire-in human relations, leadership. administration, child psy­ raise girls' sights chology, management-are marketable skills that add to our value as present or potential paid workers. In Girl Scouting, too, \\e can move into volunteer is when they are career opportunities that can give us more prestige. room to grow, and per­ very young-before sonal fulfillment than most paid jobs. It's also true that many paid jobs distance us from contact with a wide self-limiting variety of interesting women and men who share our community or national goals. Volunteer service helps fill that gap superb!) \\ell, I believe. Peter stereotypes can Drucker, the noted management expert agrees: Growing numbers of women in the workplace no longer have the close ties \\tth their communities they take hold. had when they stayed at home," he says. but )OU Girl Scouts give \\-Omen that important sense of community that. some\, here along the way, has been lost." Most of us have chosen lives that have more than one important dimen­ sion. Some of us are wives and mothers and patd workers and service vol­ unteers. Some of us have chosen to be full·time \\ ives and mothers; others put most of our energies into our careers. The girls we lead will surely make equally varied decisions. The key word, and its a beautiful one, is "choice." What we all, and especially you leaders, are tl) ing to give our young Girl Scouts is the blessed awareness that the} do ha\ e choices. The Girl Scout experience should help girls to realize that l'fe is full of difficult decisions and that the ability to make considered, wise chotees is the ke} to the self· directed, happy, and satisfying futures we \\Ish for them all.
