Approach your volunteer programming with greater confidence by learning how to identify, prioritize, and mitigate risks.

Overview

When managing your alumni volunteer programs, you will encounter a variety of unplanned situations that will require you to pivot and adapt in the moment – whether it be speakers experiencing travel delays or shifting your program online because of COVID-19. When these risks occur, you don’t always have the time or resources to solve the problem quickly and effectively and it’s all-too-easy to feel overwhelmed in thinking it’s impossible to manage it all.

Join us online and learn how preparing for risk mitigation can protect your programming against the unexpected. You will practice a five-step process that will help you identify, prioritize, respond to, monitor, and communicate the four types of risks that may arise in your program. Since each risk type has its own unique solution, you will be presented with a rubric that will help guide you through risk mitigation in a simple and systematic way that will increase your efficiency and comfort in your approach to alumni volunteer programming.
