Whether it&#8217;s staying an extra couple of minutes to tidy up or responding to an urgent last-minute call to cover a shift, volunteers always have a knack for giving more than expected. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yet, as volunteer managers, we sometimes forget to prioritise operational and strategic tasks which will provide a greater long-term benefit, becoming immersed by working <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">in<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> our volunteer programme instead of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">on<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sometimes we need to take a step away from our organisation&#8217;s day-to-day running to learn, exchange best practice and hard-learned lessons with your peers, or just simply reiterate the steps we need to ensure long-term value in our volunteering programmes. A focused conference can do just that.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>If you stop learning, you stop growing (and so does your volunteer programme)<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This nugget of wisdom often echoes through any informative or educational events marketing material. Yet, despite its excessive use, it remains true and is one of the most important factors for ensuring you prioritise your personal and professional development. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Without developing your skills and knowledge of the latest trends, technology and discoveries, you put yourself at a disadvantage. Ensuring that you spend sufficient time developing an awareness of new developments will ensure that you protect your volunteer programme and safeguard preparation for future changes. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Who said work should be boring &#8230;.have fun <\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We have all been guilty of slipping into a routine where we repeat activities daily, trying to reduce any distractions and focus on <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">what matters<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In doing so, we inadvertently remove the sources of entertainment, creativity and inspiration we previously amused ourselves with and used to fuel our work with the necessary passion it deserves. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Attending a conference provides an opportunity to find new inspirations in an environment that is fun, welcoming and different. Simply by removing ourselves from the confines of our office, we open our minds to new stimuli that can inspire a change in our approach. The opportunity to meet new people, learn new ways and experience new places, genuinely excites (most) of us. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Network, Network, Network <\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meeting someone in person provides a real chance to <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">connect<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. You notice their body language, facial response and their voice. Collectively these interactions have a much greater value which is longer lasting and valued.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The importance of building your network is beneficial to both yourself and your organisation. It could be as simple as identifying new suppliers or sharing approaches to a shared challenge. The value and potential of collaboration, open discussion and <\/span>mutual interest make<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> networking very worthwhile.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Industry Insight <\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The opportunity to listen to industry-leading<\/span> figures can provide a chance to learn valuable information and insight that you may not have been aware of or had access to. As speakers want to be recognised for their experience and expertise they will supply their audience with an arsenal of practical and easy-to-implement<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> takeaways; from bite-size easy wins to long-term strategic considerations.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Lunch, Lunch, Lunch<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As every volunteer manager knows, it is important to keep your workforce focused and fed. So make sure you don&#8217;t miss out on the top lunch provided and enjoy a freshly prepared, wholesome and tasty lunch with refreshments. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b><i>So what are you waiting for, you owe it to your volunteers!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So there you go, 6 compelling reasons for you to give up your desk for one day, go on an adventure to discover, network and learn.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you would like to find out more about TeamKinetic&#8217;s Annual Conference or Volunteer Management Software, please get in touch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>You can find\u00a0<span style=\"color: #6fa200;\"><a style=\"color: #6fa200;\" href=\"https:\/\/teamkinetic.co.uk\/\">TeamKinetic<\/a><\/span> on social media and listen to our podcast:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><span style=\"color: #1da1f2;\"><a style=\"color: #1da1f2;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TeamKineticUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/span> \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #3b5998;\"><a style=\"color: #3b5998;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/TeamKineticUK\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #0a66c2;\"><a style=\"color: #0a66c2;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/teamkinetic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LinkedIn<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/c\/TeamKinetic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YouTube<\/a><\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 <span style=\"color: #c32aa3;\"><a style=\"color: #c32aa3;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/teamkineticuk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<span style=\"color: #1ed760;\"><a style=\"color: #1ed760;\" href=\"https:\/\/anchor.fm\/teamkinetic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Podcast<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><em>Have you enjoyed using TeamKinetic?
