Getting the Best from your Volunteers
Getting the Best from your Volunteers
Tuesday 26th February from 10am to 4pm
Understanding volunteers’ motivation is key to maintaining their positive involvement. The course looks at what motivates and de-motivates, and how to give appropriate recognition and opportunities for personal development. Different ways of offering support and supervision to volunteers are explored, recognising that some volunteers require more of these than others. We also look at some difficult scenarios, analysing what has gone wrong and what could be done for the best outcome.
By the end of the session, participants will:
- understand what motivates and de-motivates volunteers
- understand good practice in relation to support and supervision
- recognise and be able to manage a variety of difficult situations
- know when and how to terminate a volunteering relationship
- be able to assess needs for training and development and recognise different ways of meeting these
- know how to give appropriate recognition to volunteers
Ideal for: those responsible for the management of volunteers and volunteer programmes in Wales
