A Whopping 90% of the People Who Attended This Nonprofit Webinar Rated It As Great to Excellent!

With declining national volunteer rates and healthy competition for the attention of supporters, top notch leadership skills are crucial to retaining qualified volunteers.

Old school, top-down supervisory styles simply aren't working anymore. Volunteers want to be equal partners in mission delivery.  At the same time, they need to do so within the limits of your organization’s policies. With the right leadership approaches, applied at the right time, you can keep both sides happy, all while reducing your own anxiety and stress. We’ll show you how.

In this 90-minute webinar recording, we’ll share practical tactics and tools to help you foster a motivated volunteer workforce where collaborative results are achieved and volunteer talents can truly shine.

Your presenter, Tobi Johnson, has supervised countless nonprofit volunteers and professional staff and has built many successful volunteer programs from the ground up. She will share tip sheets and templates, developed from 30 years experience in the field, to help you apply your new leadership skills immediately.
