I love recruiting volunteers. Putting people in a position to have a positive impact on another person's life is something that I find extraordinarily gratifying and rewarding. I have been recruiting volunteers on a local and global scale for 30+ years - and I don't intend to stop! Not ever.Everyone has a talent, whether it's a corporate executive who can transfer his/her leadership know-how to a younger, less experienced manager in the developing world or someone who can share a specialized skill with a hospice patient (e.g., playing a musical instrument, working on a craft project together, pet therapy, or simply listening and being present for another human being). We can all be volunteers and benefit from the experience in countless ways... If I had $1 for every time someone told me that they "received" so much more than they "gave" on their volunteer project, then I would probably have an extra $250-$300 in my checking account! Volunteering truly is a gift.Specialties: Recruiting, peer-to-peer training and mentoring, virtual mentorship, program management, nonprofit management, volunteer management, database management, new business development, partnership development, report writing, starting ventures from scratch, health care management capacity building, health systems strengthening, African health systems, skills-based volunteering, social entrepreneurship, leadership development, international development, fundraising, strategic planning, hospice, palliative care
