Would you enjoy working with a great team of fellow volunteers to take the helm of a WRV restoration project and lead it to success? If leadership, teamwork, project planning and getting “behind the scenes” with restoration sound like they’re up your alley, you’re a great candidate to become a Project Leader! Consider taking our training to become a Project Leader or Assistant Project Leader for the 2006 season. WHAT IS PROJECT LEADERSHIP?The Project Leader works with the project leadership team, land managers, and WRV staff, and is the single person with the comprehensive “big picture” view of a project. WRV depends upon many dedicated volunteers to complete close to twenty stewardship projects on public lands each year. Most WRV projects are managed by a leadership team that includes a project leader, technical advisor, cook team, tool manager and sometimes others. The Project Leader coordinates the team and ensures that all aspects of a project are taken care of prior to the project event. Most new Project Leaders start off as an Assistant Project Leader, working with an experienced Project Leader to learn the ropes of project management. Assisting is a great way to gradually step into the role. **You’re never on your own as a leader in WRV – fellow volunteers and the WRV staff are here to help you through every step of the process.** WHAT YOU’LL LEARN ? Anatomy of a WRV project ? Project management ? Leadership techniques ? Effective communication ? Proactive planning REWARDS OF PROJECT LEADERSHIP You will... ? Learn new management skills! ?
