I agree - the biggest problem I've seen when coaching and training leaders of volunteers is time. Whether the leader is a full time staff member or a volunteer them self, most are so busy doing they forget to lead. Many volunteer leaders are a leader in title only, as they've never been given the tools and understanding to know what it means to be a leader. There are so many rewards when you lead for the right reasons and with the right heart, but many only see the downside. I look forward to your future posts on this topic! Great post Jim!
