New Volunteer Workforce

 

In order to develop a successful volunteer program, it’s important to understand today’s volunteers and how to manage them. A report entitled “The New Volunteer Workforce” by David Eisner, Robert T. Grimm Jr., Shannon Maynard, and Susannah Washburn and published by the Stanford Social Innovation Review this year explains five volunteer management pitfalls:

 

1. Not matching volunteers’ skills with appropriate assignments

2. Failing to recognize the contributions of volunteers

3. Not measuring the impact of volunteers annually

4. Failing to provide volunteers with training and professional development

5. Failing to train paid staff to work with volunteers
