Attract, Retain, Grow
People byAssociation Conference 2012
- Rejuvenate your team and empower them with a collective vision and strong leadership.
Organisations such as yours have identified human resources as being one of the most important functions for the wellbeing of their organisation, and yet very few have processes in place to maximize organizational success! The People byAssociation Conference will feature international and local presenters who have passion for the non-profit sector and proven success with managing leaders, volunteers and staff.
Earlier in the year a survey of the non-profit sector revealed the following challenges many non-profits face on a daily basis:
- Developing an attractive employment proposition – how can those in non-profit organisations attract people with the right attitude and appropriate fit for their organisation.
- Finding a better ‘people fit’ – how can robust, practical assessment tools help those assessing the competencies of new volunteers, staff and leaders?
- Successful induction programmes – how can non-profits create clear role descriptions and good social support systems so that inducting a new staff member or volunteer, is effective
- Most respondents agreed they work towards a common goal, keeping employees engaged and informed through team meetings, promoting a high level of commitment
- NFPs value leadership, learning and development, encouraging stakeholders in all areas of their organisations, however it would appear tools are not well used for ongoing assessment
- Although NFPs consider themselves good at ‘rewarding’ good performance, it would appear that those who contribute the most are not rewarded any more highly
- Respondents thought they had good clarity around values, mission and strategic goals, however there appears to be an opportunity for board members to provide better direction for the organisations.
