Description

Training Kit on Empowering Volunteer Teams

Volunteering is considered one of the most important activities that can contribute significantly to improving community life and promoting charitable and humanitarian work. In order to ensure the success of volunteer work, volunteer teams must be empowered and provided with the necessary support, through the presence of managers specialised in managing and organising volunteer work.

Methods of Motivating Volunteers

Motivating volunteers is a key factor in achieving success in any volunteer project, and the level of participation, productivity, and achievements can be improved by using the following methods of motivating volunteers:

  • Assigning the volunteer tasks that match his potential and abilities.

  • Informing the volunteer of the benefits he will gain from his volunteer work (psychological comfort, investing his talents, the ability to deal with others, enjoyment, broadening his horizons, new friendships).

  • Creating faith based incentives by informing the volunteer of the reward attached to his volunteer work.

  • Taking into account the volunteer's wishes and special circumstances when determining the time and duration of volunteering.

  • Establishing a special system for volunteers (a regulation).

  • Highlighting distinguished volunteer experiences in many charitable institutions.

  • Focusing volunteer activities on programmes and projects linked to meeting people's basic needs, which contributes to increasing the appeal of participation in these programmes

  • Transparency in the institution's work, and ensuring it has no secret or undeclared objectives.

  • Permanent recognition of the volunteer's achievements and contributions through letters of thanks and appreciation, and direct praise at public events.

Other methods of motivating volunteers also include the following:

  • Providing support and appreciation

  • Providing training and development
