Book Overview
How do you motivate the volunteers on your staff? Are you "burning out" your best people? What can you do with the pew- sitters? Do you find it hard to ask for help? This insightful, practical book by Marlene Wilson, an international authority on volunteerism, will help you answer these and other questions about volunteers in the church. Problems in any church's volunteer program can be corrected, says Wilson. We can learn to care as much about people as we do about programs by using sound principles for human resource management. This new book for all churches points out common problems, establishes management principles, answers questions, and offers a plan to turn the volunteer challenge into a reality.

Great Book - Well Worth the Read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
I purchased a number of books on recruiting and managing volunteers, both in religious and secular sectors. I actually left this one for last, to be honest, because the book looked so old and uninviting. It was written in the 80s and I was looking for something that I thought would be more contemporary. I found the book to deal with exactly the same issues that I see in the church today and was surprised at how helpful this text has been to me. (I know, I know, 20 years is not too long ago and these issues are timeless in a sense...guess I'm a sucker for marketing) The quick summary is that out of all the books I've read on the subject, I'd put this one at the top of my list. Five stars.
