Converting Episodic Volunteers into Long-Term Supporters: Building a Culture of Commitment

In this episode, host Tobi Johnson talks about the challenge of retaining episodic volunteers who step up to help during the holiday season but often disappear afterwards. Tobi shares a 4-part culture of commitment formula that sets the stage for deeper levels of commitment, discusses the importance of creating a purposeful onboarding plan even for one-time volunteers, and gives strategies for delegating, leading with ease, and using storytelling to share volunteer results.

Tobi also delves into the concept of journey mapping, exploring the volunteer experience from start to finish, and poses insightful questions to help you assess and improve your volunteer strategy. Join us for an insightful discussion on how to keep episodic volunteers engaged and turn them into long-term supporters.
