Drawing on the firsthand experiences of a broad range of authorities, it provides practical guidelines, suggestions, and checklists to help nonprofit managers develop comprehensive strategies for starting and running successful volunteer programs. It offers a wide variety of proven techniques for dealing with fundamental administrative issues, such as how to attract volunteers to your nonprofit, how they should be managed, and what can and should be their responsibilities. Essential information on key legal concepts, from standard employment law to risk management, is brought together and organized for easy reference. Basic management practices, including recruiting, training, and integrating volunteers into the general organizational structure, are described by experienced professionals in the nonprofit sector.
Often, the key to successful volunteer programs is organization. Designed to help nonprofit managers and volunteers better understand their respective roles and responsibilities, the Handbook provides all the materials needed for developing a detailed Volunteer Management Policy Manual that can be tailored to the specific needs of your nonprofit.
The comprehensive range of this manual - its combination of valuable reference information, time-tested management techniques, and authoritative guidance on policy - makes The Volunteer Management Handbook a rich and indispensable resource for nonprofit executives, directors, managers, fund-raising professionals, consultants, volunteer leaders, and others responsible for this important human resource.
