The lead from the Line: “It’s OK to Love the Job” leadership conference was a success!! Thank you to everyone that registered and attended. Thank you to our donors for your firefighter sponsorships, drink sponsors, and lunch sponsors. You helped make this event what it became. Thank you to Bowling Green State University Fire School’s dynamic duo of Kerry Fritz and Gentry Green. We would also like to thank our presenters Dr. Ben Martin and retired Captain Mike Gagliano. Both of you took a chance on us to come to NW Ohio, leave your families for three days, and share your knowledge. IAFF Local 4170 appreciates everyone involved in this event.

The other day we heard from Captain Gagliano, now Dr. Ben Martin lets you in on a little bit of what his presentations are going to be like at the Lead from the Line: It’s OK to Love the Job, leadership conference.

These men have combined over five decades worth of experience in the firehouse. They’ve been around a lot of different people and have learned a lot of different things.
