The Care & Feeding of Volunteers has evolved from a series of successful seminars attended by thousands of people across the United States and into Europe. In these sessions, Bill & his wife Ann have presented unorthodox ways of working with volunteers. They have attempted to change the paradigm of how America thinks about managing volunteers.
In this book, Bill will challenge you to consider applying many of the leadership strategies that are working in corporate America to your non-profit arena.
The Care & Feeding of Volunteers will show you how to find and attract today's volunteers into your organization. It's a new millennium and today's volunteers will not respond to yesterday's management thinking, but will be looking for an agency that respects their energy, passion, and talents.
