A) get connected with a BRG/apply for a leadership role
B) volunteer in your district
C) Toastmasters at UPS (virtual option)
D) reach out to Lovely Louidort or Khia Bridges via LinkedIn or Teams and ask if you could connect for 30 minutes or so for an informal discussion when they have some time. Either are great resources and won't steer you wrong about your development/career trajectory options.
