Setting up a Volunteer Program

Are you frustrated by the difficulty involved in recruiting volunteers for your church, school, or non-profit organization? To top it all
off, you finally get your volunteer needs filled, and they start to leave. Bottom-line, only a few volunteers stick in there for the long
haul.

What could you do if you were not spending so much time trying to recruit volunteers or doing the work that a volunteer could easily
handle? Imagine all the service you would be able to deliver or devote more time to doing.

This program moves volunteer recruitment from haphazard to a well-defined program. It looks at how you recruit new volunteers,
match volunteers to the position of their dreams, encourage them so they do not burn out, and transform yourself in doing the things
you most want to do.

Topics
Participants in this program will learn:

The real reason you need volunteers
How to recruit volunteers

Max Impact sessions are a blend of interactive lecture, discussion, and self-reflection. Our approach adds fun to the learning process
with practical concepts that can be put into action immediately.

We employ a variety of flexible delivery methods, including: half-day sessions, staff meetings, power breakfasts, or impact lunch hours –
