Volunteer Management 101

In this audiobook, Madding and King draw on their decades of experience to explore the dynamics between paid employees and volunteers in organizations. They emphasize the distinct motivations of each group, highlighting how financial necessity drives employees to endure challenges, while volunteers are fueled by a desire to make a difference. The authors provide insights on effectively managing these valuable resources, particularly the risks of underappreciation and overwhelming commitments that may lead volunteers to disengage abruptly.
