"Permission Leadership: Developing Executive Skills in Volunteer Settings," Jan Michaletz '74

It has been suggested that the management environment in volunteer shops is often challenging. Without compensation and organizational authority to wield, volunteer managers must be adept leaders to keep fellow volunteers productive and working toward shared goals. Jan Michaletz knows a thing or two about managing within an volunteer organization from her nearly 4 decades of extensive leadership in a wide range of civic and community volunteer roles. Jan will share with us her thoughts on leadership and lessons learned along the way.
