Summary: We were volunteers before leading volunteers. And we’ve likely been hurt through lack of support or personal care from our leader. Learn how to lead volunteers better.

Do you want to know one of my greatest fears? I fear not taking care of a volunteer well and they get hurt. Listen. I was a volunteer for a very long time.  I GOT HURT sometimes and it was almost always from a lack of support or personal care from the staff leader I was serving under.

Then I became THE STAFF LEADER and transitioned AWAY from being a volunteer.  While it helps to have been a volunteer, that ground level knowledge can wear off.  I can forget pretty quickly.

You know if volunteers have a bad experience and quit, they will likely tell their friends. Then we feel doubly doomed. Word tends to spread and it tends to spread pretty fast.

I wished I could tell you that there was a simple solution. However, if Jesus Himself said, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few,” you can pretty much take that one to the bank.

Volunteer leadership is hard. But it does not need to be impossible.
