 When is it time to change? It’s often not as obvious as Peter Brady’s voice cracking, but sometimes it is. Seeing change for what it is and welcoming it as a tool is a vital skill to volunteer managers. Transitioning volunteers into and out of positions requires finesse. Fine tune your skills and share your wisdom with others.
