Volunteer management volunteer recruitment volunteer recognition


Hi All,


Thanks to those people in volunteer management and volunteer recruitment, who shared their comments on the previous blog post about the important first 4 minutes when volunteers move from first impressions to lasting ones.




So how do you make a great impression in the first 4 minutes?




Just focus on this one thing from the very beginning…




MAKE EACH VOLUNTEER FEEL SPECIAL AND IMPORTANT. This is the most powerful way to make a positive and lasting impression on anyone.




Mary Kay Ash said it best…




“Every single person you meet has a sign around his or her neck that says, ‘Make me feel important’. If you can do that, you’ll be a success not only in business but in life as well”.




From the book Beyond Just Words: 502 Inspirational Quotes for Those Who Serve!
