To get started with leadership positions within a collaborative project, we recommend that you begin by taking on the role of Workstream lead.  In this role, you will drive a workstream of a project, encouraging active participation as well as leading the design and execution of validation activities for the workstream.  This helps you build experience in leading part of a collaborative project and is a good way to meet and work with the other project participants.
