401: Welcome to Season 4!

Tobi Johnson, President and Founder of VolunteerPro, and Jennifer Bennett, Director of Education and Training at VolunteerMatch talk about the Season 4 themes and their thoughts on how successful leaders of volunteers are doubling down on strengthening relationships with their supporters as we build back from the pandemic.

Show Notes:

Season 4 of the Time + Talent Podcast is here and we're finally caught up! Tobi and Jennifer are back with a second episode of the year. We generally post one season per year, however Season 3 was posted earlier this year - having been delayed by COVID.

Now, Tobi and Jenimfer are back on track to share innovative and inspirational stories from practitioners in the field of nonprofit volunteer and community engagement.

The good news is that nonprofits are building back from COVID and a global pandemic and welcoming volunteers back to service. In this season, we spotlight organizations that made the best of the challenges posed by lockdowns and came out stronger and more resilient because of them. In some cases, leaders of volunteers are continuing initiatives they started in the pandemic that have had an impact on those who serve and those who benefit from these fresh ways of thinking and doing.

It’s a testament to the dedication and creativity of volunteer managers around the world and the volunteers who were willing to roll up their sleeves and dive in, even in the face of uncertainty.

This season would not have been possible without the generosity of our guests who were willing to share their journeys with our audience. We thank each and every one of them for joining us to share their time and talent.

We hope you enjoy Season 4 - please take a moment to subscribe, rate, and review. This helps us reach a wider audience of professionals just like you who may be in need of a little inspiration and good news.
