As volunteer managers we are keen to involve volunteers to support the work we do in our organisations. Often the managing of these volunteers is delegated to a member of staff who is not necessarily a volunteer manager. How can we ensure that all staff who work with volunteers are equipped to do so?
This session will cover:
- Why people become volunteers
- Our reasons for engaging with volunteers
- What might be the challenges when working with volunteers
- Overcoming barriers
- Communication
- Motivating our volunteers
