What We Learned (the hard way) about Supervising Volunteers is back in print! Just as the official description says, it's "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." I was one of the contributors to this book, and own a copy myself, which I frequently reference. If you work with volunteers, this book is worth buying.
