What color is traditionally associated with leadership in FBLA?

The color traditionally associated with leadership in the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) is red. This choice symbolizes determination, strength, and the willingness to take charge—qualities that are essential for effective leadership. Red has also been historically used in various contexts to convey passion and a proactive approach, which aligns with the ideals of FBLA in preparing students for future roles as business leaders.

While other colors like blue, green, and yellow have their own connotations and associations—often related to trust, growth, and optimism, respectively—red remains the definitive color that represents the essence of leadership within the FBLA framework. In FBLA activities and materials, this representation helps to instill a sense of pride and purpose in leadership roles among its members.
