Is it appropriate for a teenager to lead a committee of adults?

Poll - Total Votes: 8

Yes, I see nothing wrong with that

Yes, theoretically - but I'm struggling to see a scenario where that makes sense

No, but the teenager can be a voting member of the committee

No, the teenager should in some way be a step lower than the adults

As a consultant, adviser, instructor, or guide. It might be the best idea in some situations. As an 'alpha', probably not.

@puck61 What if the teenager is the chairperson of a volunteer committee under the guidance of an adult professional with lots of experience?

@Professional I thought that was what I just described. Being a leader in every aspect except for protocol.

@puck61 Gotcha
