Before you begin any volunteer recruitment process, the first step is a clear description of the skills, experience and expected deliverables you require for each role. Position descriptions improve your chances that the right volunteer with the right skills will apply. They also set clarity around required deliverables, improving successful execution by the volunteer.
In this toolkit you’ll find a Volunteer Position Description template as well as two samples of Vantage Point Position Descriptions we’ve created for actual roles on our external talent team.

Scoping new projects and initiatives often begins from a place of financial constraint.
But thinking more broadly about the resources at hand can remove this!
When starting a new project, focusing first on human resources by using a Project-Based People Plan can empower a more abundant approach to scoping. At its core, a Project-Based People Plan challenges assumptions about resource constraints and allows you to plan in a way where you are not limited solely to budgetary capacity. Focusing first on the people, the Project-Based People Plan outlines all the skills and talent required to see your project through to success.
