Placing, Supporting, and Supervising Volunteers
Volunteers deserve quality support and effective supervision. Each volunteer should know where to turn to have questions answers when they are confronted by unexpected challenges or are navigating rocky terrain. Supervision also provides volunteers with feedback on whether they are meeting expectations. To help volunteers, the volunteer manager should facilitate channels to offer assistance, feedback, and recommendations.
The information in this section will help you to be effective in your supervisory role.
