The Volunteer Playbook course is designed to help you recruit more volunteers. You'll learn how to recruit at the ground level while you improve your volunteer culture by focusing on specific key components.

Session 1: Assessment & Barriers

Assess the current volunteer reality in your ministry, and in your church overall, to identify barriers.

Session 2: Recruiting

We’ll talk about practical tips for volunteer recruiting, and you’ll determine the number of volunteers you need to make your ministry thrive.

Session 3: Onboarding

You’ll fine tune your onboarding process so a new volunteer’s first two months help them stick for the long haul.

Session 4: Vision & Culture

You’ll define your mission, vision, and strategy in a clear and compelling way that will draw people to your ministry. We’ll also work on creating a magnetic volunteer culture because culture is what people really notice.

Session 5: Structure

You’ll design a structure for your team that empowers others, keeps you sane, and makes room for growth.

Session 6: Roles

Your volunteer recruitment will be most effective when people serve in roles that utilize their gifts and passions.

Session 7: Communication

Communication builds trust, increases influence, and shows you care, so we’ll create a top-notch communication plan.

Session 8: Training

One of the biggest fears potential volunteers have is not being ready, but your new training plan will alleviate their concerns.

Session 9: Recruitment Strategy

Recruitment will take place throughout, but here we’ll focus on building a system that works year-round.

Session 10: Evaluation & Improvement

With everything in place, you’re ready to plan how you’ll work on it going forward.
