Engaging, Managing, and Retaining Volunteers Through Client- Focused Engagement
Course Description...
Volunteers help to augment paid staff efforts with mission completion. Yet, managing and retaining volunteers is more than a “Ya’ll Come” proposition. When engaging volunteers, you must consider what skills your organization needs in order to complete its mission. Volunteer engagement should be client-focused, not organization-focused. Participants in this session will explore the basics of a well-run volunteer program and will learn how a well-run program ties directly to volunteer retention.
You will Learn
1. Develop volunteer engagement opportunities that are mission-focused
2. Create tasks that will attract volunteers
3. Understand the importance of skill-based
engagement
4. Construct an attention-grabbing message
5. Support and retain your volunteers
