Abstract:
An expansion of activities entails a growing amount of administrative and organizational work. A paid staff member can reduce the workload of board members. But hiring an employee for the first time is a big step for the community and also requires extra effort. The workshop is based on the experiences of CEE-afiliates that have already gone through this process. We will discuss the most important issues, cover both best practices and bad decisions. We will practice different situations using small real-life cases, such as onboarding and dismissal, building trust on a personal and organizational level, the changing role of the board. |
