Hello everyone,
At the volunteer strategy day one of the things that was emphasised was a better flow of information between volunteers, staff and the board. I've been thinking about some of the ways in which we can improve this.
One idea I had was to host a monthly Google Hangout at a regular time and date at which anyone can drop in and share ideas, ask questions, float suggestions and so on. This would regularly be attended by at least a couple of members of staff and a couple of trustees, perhaps on a rotational basis.
We tried a similar thing with IRC a while back and it wasn't particularly successful, in part because the tool isn't especially engaging for many people. I think we are ready to try something different.
Any thoughts?
Stevie
I'm all for trying out ways of improving communications and this sounds like it might be useful. I'd be be happy to take part in whatever capacity would be helpful.
