So many of us place our volunteers by need. I need a small group leader for 10th grade girls so if you’re a new female volunteer, you get the 10th grade girls. Why? How do you know if this new volunteer is right for that position or even knows how to lead a small group or even cares about 10th grade girls? There has to be a better way. We need our volunteers to have confidence that we have placed them in the right position by their passions. If a volunteer is placed by passion then they will stay longer, be more effective and enjoy the ministry.
LeaderTreks has produced a new product call The Sweet Spot. It’s a placement assessment for adult volunteers. This assessment will tell you what your new volunteer is passionate about, the area of impact they want to have in youth ministry and what types of students they feel a burden for. With this information you can place them in the right role and have them on your team for years to come. Check it our at http://www.simplyyouthministry.com/resources-leadertreks-youth-workers-the-sweet-spot.html
My name is Doug Franklin and I serve youth workers through a ministry called LeaderTreks. I love youth ministry and the people who serve in it. I work with an incredible team creating tools and resources enabling youth workers to develop students into leaders. I want to influence youth workers to challenge students and prepare them for leadership in the kingdom of God.
