About
Should volunteers be managed - or is that anathema? Do volunteers seek reward - or would they then become employees? Two of many questions asked by those seeking to manage people who give their time and effort freely. Questions asked by those seeking to motivate volunteers and win their commitment. Two of many questions answered in this book.
Achieving with Volunteers sets out the actions needed by managers in local, regional, national and international civil society organisations (CSOs) to achieve great things with volunteers. Importantly, it discusses the issues that managers of volunteers will inevitably encounter in striving for performance, productivity, and results.
This book builds practical models that managers of volunteers can follow and adapt to get the very best from their people. This first edition is right up to date, considering both the modern-day slow decline of volunteer numbers and the growth of tech both threatening and enhancing jobs.
