Workshops

*This training fulfills the Personnel Management core competency of CNE’s Management Academy.

With limited staff capacity, nonprofits often heavily rely on volunteers to support their missions and deliver their services. And when volunteers are utilized strategically, nonprofit programs can truly flourish. But what steps are involved in fully incorporating volunteers–and successfully managing volunteers–at your organization? Join CNE and Cindy Fredrick to learn how to:

• Tie volunteer work to your mission and strategy and make volunteers aware of their vital role.
• Plan effectively for ongoing volunteer management at your organization including orientation, training, and evaluation.
• Handle the “soft skills” of volunteer management including motivation and navigating difficult conversations.

All nonprofit board members, directors and staff involved in guiding or managing volunteer programs at their organizations are encouraged to attend.
