Packed with the advice, wisdom,
and experience of over 85 real-life, on-the-job supervisors of volunteers,
this guide offers a crystal clear analysis of what works and what doesn't in
supervision. It also includes comments from volunteers about what they need
from those who supervise them, as well as excerpts from classic articles and
books by experts in the field and a self-assessment survey covering the
attitudes and actions necessary to be an effective supervisor.
