Tracy Connors has done a great job of updating a terrific resource for anyone working with volunteers. There is a neat addition of online resources connected to the book so the resource actually covers much more than you would expect with the online resources. There is a great variety of authors contributing to the book with a number of different perspectives.
Very thorough and empirical view of volunteer management that gives you many different perspectives and models to help you organized, lead and motivate volunteers. This book can get a little dry and is thick, but gives very valuable information.
This is a great resource for anyone new to overseeing volunteers or starting up a volunteer program. This is almost like a bible for anyone working with volunteers - a lot of information and can always go back and learn more.
If anyone needs to find one theoretical book which will broadly cover the bases of "how" and "why" something should be done, this will do it. A good, solid, comprehensive reference guide.
This textbook was painfully dry and repetitive. I felt like more variety of authors could've been selected. My professor reverted back to the older edition as it was more useful than this one.
Very informative and helpful! I have used many of the tactics that this book presents and the information has proved to be very valuable.
